True enough.  10.4 Server with 10.4 clients and 10.5 clients.  The  
feature never worked that I am aware of.

If I "add" the printers in via the "Shared Printers" popup while  
printing (which is gone in 10.5) then my clients could at least see  
what the printer was doing but couldn't not manage any jobs.  However,  
a number of programs (InDesign for one) would not print properly to  
those printers so we now add them automatically as an IPP printer via  
Directory Binding / MCX, this method everything prints correctly but  
the printers always show "Idle".  I can live with it this way but  
would prefer my users to be able to cancel print jobs (oops I just  
told it to print 100 copies of a 500 page document).
