Dear my friends...
I have 2 computers and 1 printer (epson stylus plus 810). one station has suse linux 8.2 and another has windows xp. the printer is connected to my windows xp station and i already can print from my windows xp properly.
but i still have a problem if i want to print from my suse linux 8.2 station.
what i have done is as following... - I installed configured samba server and inetd on my SuSE 8.2 station.
There is nothing to configure in inetd to print to a windows printer share. You need to setup samba client -not- the server.
- I shared the printer on windows xp.
Good.
- I setup the printer on my SuSE 8.2 station to print through samba. I mean i want to print from the station whose suse to the printer of another station whose windows xp.
Setup using which program?
- I defined the ip-address of my windows xp and the printer name and username. password for the local username is none (these steps is also with yast2).
Good.
- I tested it then came "the print server is accessible".
- I saved the printer configuration.
Using which print service, ld or cups?
But if I print from my SuSE 8.2 nothing then i find nothing happen on the printer. the printer doesn't move to print at all. no result and no error message.
The printer doesn't work if I print from the SuSE station. I can print only from the windows xp.
Please tell me what's wrong....
Thank you very much in advance.
