I am using Mandrake 10 as a file and print server on for my home network. All
of my PC clients can print successfully to the epson stylus c60 that I have
attached to the printer. My Mac, using OS X (10.3) cannot. It says that it
cannot find the printer .. Is there a special setting that I must use in
the smb.conf file?
