why can't use print after installed CUPS ?

i had installed CUPS-1.4.3 from source(configure, make, make install)

now i can configure print via localhost:631, and the test page is perfect.

but the problem is, why can't i see my print in programs ? (etc. in firefox, file->print, there is no print in print dialog)

thanks all

Re: why can't use print after installed CUPS ?

What OS  are you running?

Right Click on Desktop -> Settings->Xfce4 Printing System Selection ->  choose CUPS

Then  Right Click on Desktop-> Accessories -> Xfce4 Print Diologue
Does your printer show up there, now?
