livinthailandos Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 I've gone through lots of postings, google searches and no luck. Currently running 2 ubuntu versions 9.04 My computer can find the other printers but are unable to print anything from them Under Basic Server Settings: I have enabled: Show printers shared by other systems & publish shared printers connected to this system under the printer properties which are a shared comupter I still keep getting Printer State: Processing - recoverable: Unable to connect to printer; will retry in 30 seconds. This printer is hooked up on the other computer and can print PLEASE NOTE: this is just sharing computers between ubuntu computers only, there are no windws involved Do i need to edit some cupsd.conf files or what. any help would be really appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shriah Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 (edited) You can get a idea of what went wrong by looking at the Syslog . System->Administrator->View Log . I don't have a printer but if you have the log we can try to figure out a solution . This might help Ubuntu Help Edited October 30, 2009 by shriah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
