sudo nano -w /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
Now you need to edit this file in order to allow connections from your network. Assuming that your network uses addresses starting with “192.168.0.” you need to add the following: (you only need to modify the top level (first) Location tag because other Location tags seem to inherit permissions)
<Location />
Order Deny,Allow
Deny From All
Allow From 127.0.0.1
#Modify 192.168.0.* to match your configuration.
Allow From 192.168.0.*
</Location>
Now, you need to set the TCP port that the printer system will accept connections on.
Ubuntu 6.06 add the following line to /etc/cups/cups.d/ports.conf:
Port 631
and comment out:
Listen 127.0.0.1:631
5) Save the file and exit the editor. Now restart the printing system with this command:
sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys restart
