remote jetdirect printing

[chuck lawrence]

hi,

I'm trying to configure a print server, I guess.  I've got a collection 
of *nix boxes and some hp jetdirect printers.

I can add a jetdirect printer to my rhe 3 server, either with the cups 
tool or printconf - that works great.  with printconf, I get the ability 
to "share" the printer, either to "all hosts" or to a list.

so if I share the printer, and then try to print from another host, 
nothing happens - no obvious errors, nothing to suggest that my original 
host has even received a request to process a print job.

clearly, I'm missing something.  can this be done the way I'm trying to 
do it?

adv<thanks>ance
