I have tried my best to search this topic on a lot of websites and tried a lot of things over the last couple days. I still haven't been able to solve the issue.
So, we got a new / newer printer and installed it on my wife's computer. We are both running the latest updates of fossapup64 9.5 and the printer is connected via USB to the computer in her office. The printer (Epson Ecotank ET-2760) works perfectly on her USB connection with the driver "EPET-2760 Series.PPD", *NickName: "Epson ET-2760 Series - epson-inkjet-printer-escpr 1.8.2-1 (Seiko Epson Corporation)" . Here is a screenshot of the cups interface from my computer connected to cups "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.:631" on her computer.
It appears, if I can access the cups interface via web browsers on her computer in the next room. I have been able to modify permissions, add users etc with no problems. shouldn't I be able to find the printer in cups?
Question!
On my Cups interface, I have tried to add this printer in cups with both "Find printers", and "Add printers", and with every protocol I can use, and they all fail. I have added my users by name, ip address and hostname in her admin panel. I have searched for printers on mine and have only found the Virtual Braille BRF Printer . We are on the same subnet through a local router with filters disabled. I have disabled both firewalls and nothing seems to work. I would like to figure out how to use this printer from "my" through the router office.
Any ideas?
PS. I am wireless and she is direct. Same router and subnet.
