click on system-
scan for a cups printer on an ubuntu jaunty server and cannot find it
tried several ways, e.g. spec the ipp printer, etc.

Hi
I've got a very similar problem in Karmic Beta.
I share two printers via cups, but although I can find them in the network I can't connect to them (tried from a jaunty-client). To add them on the client I choose "settings" in the printer-window and check the box "show printers shared by other systems", but I still can't print and if I verify the connection in the ipp-part of the add printer-assistant the error message "Access denied" appears. Printing on the server itself works fine.
Please see the attached file about this access problem.
Don't hesitate to ask me if you need additional information.
Thanks a lot in advance!
Regards
Simon
