I followed the detailed instructions in the post at this link by Luis Alvarado which explained in detail how to share a printer in Ubuntu 12.04.

Everything worked as it was supposed to after following the directions.

My problem is, when I go back to Printers-Server-Settings, I get the following dialog;

CUPS server error There was an HTTP error: Not found.

Printing still seems to be working but if I want to stop the print server for this printer, how do I reverse the settings I turned on if I can't get to them?

In case it matters, this installation of Ubuntu has HPLIP 3.14.6 installed on. I assume CUPS is also installed since I see a webpage show up if I go to http://localhost:631. I believe it said 1.53 I think.

I am new to Linux so if any other info is needed, please don't hesitate to let me know.

Thanks for any and all help.

I had this problem as well; from what I've seen it is a recent problem with CUPS that will be patched soon. In the meantime, I was able to do everything I needed by:

1) Pointing my browser at localhost:631, this will bring up CUPS' web interface. 2) Clicking the 'administration' tab. this will give you the ability to edit all options found in printers-server-settings.
