Did change nothing. See: help. Terrance I will try that when I got time sunday. I didn't even know that Windows is unable to use http and a generic interface to connect to cups. I hope once they get a bit further with their linux on NT stuff they will also add native support for cups and alike protocols, that would be nice. Terrance I researched into this whole stuff a bit more and SMB is no longer working with all this sharing stuff if one wats to remain secure.
For example, particular trays or duplexing options can be selected. If you have a correct PPD file for the printer installed on the CUPS server then these options should work from the client without requiring the client to have additional driver software installed. Your best bet might be to get a different printer, which can be done very cheaply if you approach it right.
Secondhand laser printers are very cheap on Ebay, and you can get a Laserjet or something similar for about USD, depending on your location. You should have little trouble getting one of these to work and used ones are so cheap you can treat them as a throwaway item.
If you don't have the lpq command then add the lpr or unix printing features to your win10 box understand I don't have to manage win10 boxes so these instructions are for the older OSs. If you can get an affirmative with lpq then win10 printing should work. Understand with lpd running on your linux box, there is no processing that happens on the linux box.
CUPS is not really involved other than moving the print job from the network port to the usb port. Is there something on the PI that could be blocking it or firewall or something I can look at perhaps? BrentWassell, thank you for your inquiry and to the other IT Pros for their very helpful input. Here is some additional information:. Could be Windows 10 firewall is blocking the communication. Very often CUPS difficulties are related to permissions. However I would incline to a resolution mentioned here Windows 7 cannot see a Linux shared printer.
BrentWassell, since you are using the Windows 10 native drive, you may want to try the following:. I also had the same problem. I found this thread while looking for advice. However, I could not find how to get the "Configure Internet Port" dialog box. Siri recommended an Internet search rather than a resource on my computer! Eventually I found the following combination worked:.
Hi, I had this issue and this was the closest post to explain and tackle my issue. I completed this task after 12 hours or more of trial and error and forum reading. So I felt obligated to feedback my final solution to help whoever follows me with this issue. Issue: I could successfully manage my USB printer which is connected to a raspberry pi 3 CUPS dedicated print server, but I could not figure out how to set the printer up on my Windows 10 laptop.
I made the print server a dedicated IP address so even if the power cycles, these settings are static. The IP address of the print server is This article or section needs expansion. Afterwards restart cups. Note that "browsing" at the print server is a different thing from "browsing" at a remote networked host. The cups-browsed service is unnecessary on the print server, unless also broadcasting the old CUPS protocol, or the print server is also "browsing" for other networked printers.
On the remote networked host, the cups-browsed service is required to "browse" for network broadcasts of print services, and running cups-browsed will also automatically start cupsd. The cups.
If cups. Open up the web interface to the server, select the Administration tab, look under the Server heading, and enable the "Share printers connected to this system" option. Save your change by clicking on the Change Settings button. The server will automatically restart.
