  • If you are in need of old software that is no longer in your repositories, recommend that you go to Internet Archive at https://archive.org
  • A member brought up a problem he cannot share a printer with four computers on a wired LAN using a USB cable. The printer is shared and enabled and the driver is in CUPS. The printer is recognized by the other 3 computers but still will not print. No solution was offered.
