> cups 2.2.10 on the rpi4. How do I fix this error?
I'm just putting together a new cups printer server and had this.
Issue was printer not shared to network and only had access by users on
cups server itself
>From my notes:
7. etc/cups/cupsd.conf
<Location />
Order allow,deny
Allow all # I had to add Allow all, to access the web admin over the
network
</Location>
8. Restart cups with: systemctl restart cups.service
9. Go to web interface in browser, http://<ip>:631
Check box "share printers connected to this system"
+ check allow printing from the internet
Nb: it will redirect you to https pages then ask for your username/password
as per the account you added to the lpadmin group.
Later note: CUPS auto installed some network shared printers, but I had to
share those too (modify printer > accept all existing values but check box
to share).
