Hello Brian,

I had cups-browsed on Client A but I disabled it after the printer appears 3 times after a reboot.

But thank you for your reply.


My current solution in the is the following:

Yesterday I played a little bit around with the generic drivers, and the IPP everywhere seemed to work well. Later it became a worse experience because I had to print a big document (25 MB) and the filter failed. I reduced the size of the document. Anyway, it took ages to filter the 38 pages (19 times 2 pages). After 1 hour I gave up.

Today I tried to enable cups-browsed, but avahi is not easy with 2 subnets.

Then I tried to change back to the raw printer again and I get it working using the following method:
1. Set up new printer use Generic- IPP Everywhere 
2. Change the printer to use the raw driver.
It was luck that I found this method.

This work on both client without errors and I can print from both client. 
I do not know if I run into a bug, but from my point of view, this behaviour is more than weird.

Regards Jonatan
