RH4 CUPS

We have 4 subnets each having multi ip printers and what we do in cupsd.conf is
Browsing On
BrowseProtocols cups
BrowseOrder Allow,Deny
BrowseAllow from <ip-address-subnet>
This restricts all printers from any other subnet.
We do not use printool or any other tool that would directly overide cupsd.conf.

hope that helps
