Mac OS X

• How to add Math printers in Leopard

  Mac OS 10.5 (Leopard) doesn’t auto-discover printers on Math’s network to the same effect as 10.4.If you have administrative rights on your machine, follow this url:http://localhost:631/admin?op=config-serverand find these lines:

  # Show shared printers on the local network.
  
  Browsing On
  
  BrowseOrder allow,deny
  
  BrowseAllow all

  You need to add a new configuration setting, so that this section of the config file looks like this:

  # Show shared printers on the local network.
  
  Browsing On
  
  BrowseOrder allow,deny
  
  BrowseAllow all
  
  BrowseProtocols cups

  • Click the “Save Changes” button, enter the username and password of a user with administrative rights and the cups server should restart.
  • Reboot the computer, open up System Preferences, and then the “Print & Fax” pane.
  • You should now be able to add the Math printers to your list of printers.
  • Again, you need administrative rights to do this.
