As you said Windows to Ubuntu is working thus following doc is for Ubuntu to Ubuntu. ( I am using Ubuntu 9.04 with HP printers). Here Server is the PC where Printer is attached and Client is from where you want to give print. <ol><li>On the server: <ol><ol><li>Set up your printer, and make sure it's turned on and working. </li><li>Go to the System > Administration menu and click on Printing. </li><li>Select “Server → Settings” on the left, and </li><li>turn on the checkbox labeled “Share published printers connected to this system”. This will allow printer sharing over your private network. If you want to access the printer over the Internet, also turn on “Allow printing from the Internet”. </li><li>Select your printer under Local Printers on the left, select the Properties tab → Policies and turn on the checkboxes labeled “Enabled”, “Accepting jobs” and “Shared”. </li><li>If you have <a href="http://www.funnestra.org/ubuntu/intrepid/#ufw" target="_blank">enabled the firewall</a>, open port 631 (the default <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Printing_Protocol" target="_blank">IPP</a> port) for the IP addresses to which you want to give printer access. If you want to restrict printer access to your private network, set the policy to open your IPP port for only <a href="http://192.168.0.0/16" target="_blank">192.168.0.0/16</a> (i.e., IPs of the form 192.168.xxx.xxx). If you are using <a href="http://www.funnestra.org/ubuntu/intrepid/#ufw" target="_blank">ufw</a>, you can do this as follows: <pre style="margin-bottom: 0.2in;">sudo ufw allow from <a href="http://192.168.0.0/16" target="_blank">192.168.0.0/16</a> to any app CUPS</pre> </li><li>If you are behind a router on a private network, give your server a static private IP (e.g., 192.168.1.30) by clicking on the System > Administration > Network menu item and setting up a static IP. Note that the "gateway address" should be the router's address (e.g., 192.168.0.1, 192.168.1.1, or whatever). </li><li>If you want to access your server over the Internet and are behind a router, configure the router to allow access to your server's IPP port (port 631). </li><li>If you want to access your server over the Internet and your Internet Service Provider doesn't give you a static IP address, you need to <a href="http://www.funnestra.org/ubuntu/intrepid/#static-hostname" target="_blank">set up a publicly accessible hostname</a>. </li></ol></ol> </li><li>On the client: <ol><li>Go to the System > Administration menu and click on Printing. </li><li>Click on the New Printer button. </li><li> <pre style="margin-bottom: 0.2in;">http://$SERVER:631/printers/$PRINTER</pre> where $SERVER is the server hostname or IP address and $PRINTER is the printer name on the server, and then click Forward and follow the remaining steps as you would for local printer setup. You can see the names of all the printers shared by a server by visiting the following URL in your web browser also: <pre style="margin-bottom: 0.2in;">http://$SERVER:631/printers</pre> where $SERVER is the server hostname or IP address.</li></ol> Select Other, and enter the following URI: </li></ol> Best of luck Arun
