Im having problems setting up network printing in Fedora 16. In the printer setup box it says FirewallD is not running and gives a list of protocols that need to be enabled. I cannot find a FirewallD but have gone into Firewall and enabled the protocols. There is obviously something Im missing. The printer is a Canon MP970 and is connected to a Windows machine.Update: 4Nov12Bought a new printer - same problem. This time I set it up properly as a network printer. Windows 7 and Ubuntu both find the printer and print fine. Fedora still complains FirewallD is not running. The new printer is a Canon MG6250. I have installed the drivers from RPM packages.
Network Printing in Fedora
networking;firewall;printing
Finally found the answer in the Ask Fedora forums. Someone there had the same problem and one of the responces said to enter system-config-printer into Terminal and configure the printer that way. I can now print!
