Procedure 2.8 Sharing Printers

1 Start the YaST printer module with Hardware > Printer

2 Launch the Share Printers screen from the left pane.

are available:

• Check For computers within the local network and enable browsing mode

by also checking Publish printers by default within the local network.

• Add the network interface to be used by the CUPS server. If you want to

share your printers via specied network interfaces, add those in the input

box below.

• In case you like to restrict access to your CUPS server to certain networks

or IP addresses, specify these via the two input boxes.

4 Click OK to restart the CUPS server and return to the Printer Congurations

2.4 Setting Up a Scanner

You can congure a USB or SCSI scanner with YaST. The sane-backends package

contains hardware drivers and other essentials needed to use a scanner. Scanners

connected to a parallel port cannot be congured with YaST. If you own a HP All-In-

One device, see Section 2.4.1, “Conguring an HP All-In-One Device” (page 37), in-

structions on how to congure a network scanner are available at Section 2.4.3,

“Scanning over the Network” (page 37).

Procedure 2.9 Conguring a USB or SCSI Scanner

1 Connect your USB or SCSI scanner to your computer and turn it on.

2 Start YaST and select Hardware > Scanner. YaST builds the scanner database

and tries to detect your scanner model automatically.

If a USB or SCSI scanner is not properly detected, try Other > Restart Detection.

3 To activate the scanner select it from the list of detected scanners and click

Edit.

4 Choose your model form the list and click Next and Finish.

5 Use Other > Test to make sure you have chosen the correct driver.
