Need Help: Printing on network printer

807559Nov 2 2006 — edited Nov 29 2006

Hi.

I have computer with shared printer. It has Fedora Core 5 operating system and CUPS.
How can I print from my computer that is based on Solaris 10 to this printer (from Mozilla for example).
I can access printer: print test pages and see it's jobs using HTTP:
http://host_ip:631/printers/printer_name

I tryed to add access to printer using Printer Administrator, in Print Server, I wrote: host_ip/printers/printer_name, but in Print Manager - printer displayed as "Out Of Service".
I was unable to input: host_ip:631/printers/printer_name because of error message: "server name invalid".
Also, I tryed to add network printer from Printer Administrator, I wrote in destination few variants:
1. http://host_ip:631/printers/printer_name
2. host_ip
3. host_ip:631
4. host_ip:631/printers/printer_name/
5. host_ip:631/printers/

It works from Windows and Linux.
How can I print from Solaris to that printer?

Thank you.
