Well, do you want to keep the printer attached to the Windows box and use that as a print server or do you want to use linux as print server? More details would help. http://justin.yackoski.name/winp/ -- printing to windows attached printer http://www.linuxprinting.org/~till/printing-tutorial/tut.html -- setting up cups on linux for print server -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

And what have you tried? I can't write the entire book here... Check if your printer is supported, for example, here: http://www.openprinting.org/printer_list.cgi?make=Canon If it doesn't work, then try commercial drivers, like turboprint: http://www.turboprint.info/ and next time, buy a suported printer. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
