Dear Friends,

Hello. We have just spend considerable time setting up Mac OS X 10.6.4 server to host some printers to our Mac clients (previously we had used a Windows print server but it was too slow and inflexible). We have the printers we need set-up and shared out as Bonjour Shared printers because that sends out all of the duplex settings we need. We have tried to "publish" these using Workgroup Manager and they do not show up on the list. How do you "publish" these printers using WGM? NOT: We can't just let people select "nearby" printers because we want to set a default and use kerberos security.

Thanks!

With the HP printers at my work (they are networked printers) I had to log into the printer's wiki page (by putting it's IP in a browser window) and turning on Bonjour in the printers.

Satcomer, thanks!

Setting up Bonjour on the printer itself isn't an issue, it's seeing the IPP queue shared out on our Xserv. We need the queue hosted via Bonjour so that the duplex settings and print quotas are enforced.

We have the queue set-up and shared. Then we add them to a Mac OS X client and they work. Once we open Workgroup Manager to add them to the managed printing preferences we are not permitted to add the Bonjour printer to the list.

We are very close to having a better solution then using our old Windows print server (slow and easily broken by users) but this is sort of a deal breaker. Thanks!
