You can print on any printer, but for zeroconf
aka "magicly see the
other printers on the net" you need "avahi" - which I ended up
removing fom any devices, 'cause it screws up routing tables when you
happen to be in the same as a silvery rotton tomato laptop.

In all the years I've used Linux, the only time I could access a remote
printer from another PC, was when the printer was wireless.
Seeing CUPS accessing a printer USB-connected to the other PC, that was
definitely a first for me. :)

When the printer installed, the share option was obviously enabled by
default. I'll just leave it as it is, no harm in leaving that option
on.

Oh my ... that's the reason why I set up a "drop stuff here" folder on the
only computer that's connected to a printer. Whenever I drop a file into it, it gets
printed and deleted.

That's another way Nik, but this way Just Works with any editor that has
a print dialog under the files menu. The printers shared from other
machines show up as targets you can select and configure. Most of my
printing is hal files etc for my milling machines, and the line lengths
demand landscape mode, even occasionally wrapping a really long line.
And because this monster sized Brother MFP-J6920DW feeds all letter
sized paper cross ways, it does not have to rotate the raster to print
it. About a second a page faster that way. :)
