Hidong,
Hi. Install the printer locally. Then set up a new local port in the form:
\\myserver\myprinter Make sure the myprinter you are sharing is not set up
with a driver. For example type redhat-config-printer, select a name
'myprinter' then select a port, but for the driver select "Raw
Queue".
Enjoy,
tim

Subject: [Samba] printing from xp
Hi,
I've installed Samba 2.2.7a on a Red Hat 9 machine. This machine is
also running VMware with Windows XP as the guest OS. The XP virtual
machine can access the Linux host's shared directories, but not the
printer. The printer is an Epson Stylus Color 860. It works fine in
the Linux host. In the XP guest, I can see the printer in the add
printer configuration wizard. But when I try to install the printer on
the XP guest, it says that access to the printer is denied. The printer
portion of my smb.conf is:
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
guest ok = Yes
printable = Yes
browseable = no
What else do I need to check? Thanks,
Hidong
