Hi,
  I have a suse 8.0 machine sitting on my tcp/ip network.  I have been unable 
to get it to print via my novell server - novell printers so want to set it 
up to print via tcp/ip to a printer I have enabled for this.  If I go into 
Printer Manager and add a new printer, select Windows TCP/IP, scan the 
network, add the printer ip address which is found no problem, enter the port 
and click next, it asks me for the correct driver, but there's nothing in 
there it is emtpy.  I can select postscript driver but it gives an error 
saying no driver available or I can click Raw printer, which it accepts but 
when I goto test it says it cannot create a temp printer.

How can I get the correct driver to appear in the box?  Am I going a long way 
round doing this?  Seems really hard to set printers up in linux....

Regards
