[Firehol-support] Routing to an IPP Printer doesn't work

Hello everybody!

I configured Firehol to protect my server and my three internal networks and 
it works just great. The next step would be to allow some computers from 
network A to access the network printer on network B. So I added this rule


router ComputerA2IPPPrinterB src 192.168.0.10 dst 192.168.1.50
    route      all     accept


Afterwards, I can access the printer's webinterface using any browser, but 
the actual printjob doesn't get through. There are no hints in the logfiles. 
I checked the the output of "iptables --list" using webmin (provides a nicer 
representation) and found two accordig rules:

Accept	If source is 192.168.1.50 and destination is 192.168.0.10
Accept	If source is 192.168.0.10 and destination is 192.168.1.50

It does not work, though.

My MacBook puts this in its logfiles while processing a printjob:


E [17/Jun/2007:12:30:49 +0200] [Job 16] Unable to get printer status 
(client-error-bad-request)!


Thank you for any suggestions in advance!

Have a nice day
