Joe - Thanks for your help. But I'm going to scratch the idea anyway because I can't get the printer to share on the Windows machine. I'm going to put the printer on the Linux box and share from there. Thanks again - Ken On Saturday 07 June 2003 12:43 pm, Joe Morris (NTM) wrote:

I know you can share a printer attached to a Linux box with Windows machines on the same network by using Samba. But can a Linux box access a printer attached to a Windows machine?
If so, can anyone give me some general guidelines as to how to go about it?
I have found the KDE Print Manager does an excellent job. You will need to install the samba client rpm, then just follow the steps. You will be connecting to an SMB printer. That is what I do (got a Canon printer
:-( ). HTH. BTW, I never bought 8.1, but it worked fine for both 8.0
and 8.2.
