Probably for the same reason. In windows it appears that connection to the printer is ok, but when you print it goes in the windows print queue and never gets to the linux box. In printer setup it says lp on

Hello! I work at a school in Norway, and am experimenting with a Linux box as a server for our Win95 network.
