Firewall
The firewall seems to be blocking the print jobs I send to my wireless printer. When the firewall is on print jobs think that the printer is not connected. When I turn off the firewall I can print fine. Is there any way to allow print jobs through the firewall without turning it completely off? I'm using Mate 64bit.

Re: Firewall
You need to find the port that the printer is using, then open these ports in your firewall perhaps using 'iptables'.
