One of the guys is having a problem regarding the internet printing using Mac OSX (10.5.x).
IPP
If your remote box supports IPP printing, (ms-windows-xp, ms-windows-2000, Linux/Unix with CUPS, or ms-windows-95/98 with the IPP update) you can configure it to print to a printer on the Mac without setting up Samba or lpd. Make sure you have gimp-print installed, as described above, and on System Preferences click Sharing → Printer Sharing. Then, on the remote system, set up a network printer with URL
http://mac-ip-name:631/printers/mac-queue-name
If you don't have a working DNS, substitute the ip-address of the Mac for mac-ip-name.
From a Linux or Unix system running CUPS, you may need to specify the printer as "Raw"/"Raw Queue (en)".
For ms-windows PCs, which by default do not generate Postscript printer output, use the Apple Laserwriter or Apple ColorLaserwriter driver.
If your remote system supports it, you can also use IPP print configuration with lpd if you have configured the Mac to handle remote lpd clients. The URL from the client is:
lpd://mac-ip-name/mac-queue-name
