Craig

not it works!!! tnx for advice to shut down cups-config-daemon.

And now my cupsd.conf file is :
<Location /printers/Samsung>
Order Deny,Allow
Deny From All
Allow From 127.0.0.1
AuthType None
Allow from All
</Location>
<Location /printers/Epson>
Order Deny,Allow
Deny From All
Allow From 127.0.0.1
AuthType None
Allow from All
</Location>
Browsing On
BrowseProtocols cups
BrowseOrder Deny,Allow
BrowseAllow from @LOCAL
BrowseAddress 255.255.255.255
Listen *:631

That is similar to yours, only a BrowseAddress 255.255.255.255 is
present (and you don't have...)
