Doesn't seem to work.
One thing that has changed during my fiddling over the last couple
of days is that KDE now seems to have Xerox@fenris and
XeroxDuplex@fenris hardcoded into the printer list. 'fenris' is
my desktop machine, and both are the printers that the local
cups daemon picked up from the server when I ran cups locally
on the desktop. Even though I've shutdown the desktop instance
of the cups daemon, they're still listed.
Printing to either doesn't do anything.
In other news: Running "lpstat -t" does show the server's printers
listed. And I can print using lpr.
I'm going to try installing cups outside of the virtual machines
to see if there's some virtual network trickery that's causing
problems.
