Printing from Mobian
#2
Update:


I had better results by ignoring my CUPS print server and installing cups on

mobian to print directly to my wireless printer.

    sudo apt-get install cups cups-client lpr



Then adding my phone user to lpadmin

    sudo adduser mobian lpadmin

   

Then run CUPS from the browser

    http://localhost:631



Log in as mobian with phone passcode.



Go to Administration, Add Printer, and for me, choose ldp://<PrinterAddress>

To get this to work, I used the PrinterAddress from my other cups server, which

happens to be BrotherHL270-W/BINARY-P1.



This has allowed reliable printing from firefox-esr, Text Editor (gedit),

Image Viewer (eog) and Document Viewer (evince) but not Evolution or the command

line.
