Enable your Linux CUPS printers in Leopard

Just a quick tip for an issue that drew me insane for last couple of weeks. When you upgrade to Leopard suddenly you don’t see anymore the CUPS printers on your network. The reason for this is that Apple decided to disable some browsing protocols. You need to manually edit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and add BrowseProtocols all to it.

Full instructions at mcdevzone.com. Thanks!
