The other computer is ubuntu. As to the log I am unsure which one you want. Probably /var/log/cups but I am unsure. 
This is off of the wireless computer:

Okay, so this is a printer shared through another computer, right?

Youubuntu can see the printer, but it says it's not plugged in.  What is the other computer?
Can you see logs from the other computer of access attempts.
What is it whining about?

I deleted the printer yesterday (in an attempt to get it to work) and re-detected with no problem.

but its on.... the computer it is hard wired too prints. There is no cabling.... it is through the wifi. The laptop detected the printer (wirelessly) so why can't it print to it (wirelessly).

That means basically it's "unplugged or turned off".  Check the cabling.

Hi Michael,

Here's whats happening: I have a printer connected to the desktop in my office. That prints fine.... all is good. I have a laptop that used to print to the printer but ever since the hard driv e crashed and I re-installed the OS it hasn't. I go to cups and go through the printer-discovery process (and it does find it). But it will not print.

# ps -ef }grep cups
# netstat -antp | grep 631
# lpstat -p
