CUPS - not able to print remotely

Mon Apr 20, 2020 6:56 pm

Hello Everyone

I have a Raspberry 3 which is currently set up as server for my printer.

Issue: I am not able to add the printer in any of my Windows machines. Its not showing under network. I even tried adding the printer mannually and it wont detect it.

I was able to install CUPS, and Samba. No issues there.
I am also able to access CUPS from my browser on my PC
I can print from my Iphone directly to the printer.



Any ideas why I am having this issue?

Thanks

welcome to the forum.

What steps did you take to share the printer from the Raspberry Pi?

Is the printer directly connected, or is it AirPrint?
