Epson AcuLaser C1100 unter Ubuntu freigeben

Meinen Drucker habe ich zunächst nach der Anleitung von schnellie installiert

sudo apt-get install alien gcc-3.3-base libstdc++5
sudo alien Epson-ALC1100-filter-1.2-0.i386.rpm
sudo alien Epson-ALC1100-filter-cups-1.2-0.i386.rpm
# Warnungen einfach ignorieren!
sudo dpkg -i epson-alc1100-filter_1.2-1_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i epson-alc1100-filter-cups_1.2-1_i386.deb

Eine Deaktivierung des AppArmor-Profils mittels

sudo aa-complain cupsd

war bei mir nicht notwendig.
Von den Windows-Installationen im lokalen Netzwerk wollte ich auch noch auf den Drucker mittels des Internet Printing Protocols zugreifen. Dazu muss die CUPS-Konfiguration angepasst werden. Das geht über den Aufruf von CUPS und das Editieren der cupsd.conf unter Verwaltung > Konfigurationsdatei. Ich habe die Datei so angepasst, dass Rechner im lokalen Netzwerk auch auf den Drucker zugreifen können:
