I want to share a printer on a windows XP machine with my LInux machine. Although I can see printers on the Linux machine from the Windows machine I can't see the windows printer from the Linux machine....
How do I set it up?

You add the the printer to cups. (I've always found the cups interface easier to use than yast for this) by pointing your web browser on the linux machine to 127.0.0.1:631 and define the printer via the add new printer link. You select smb or windows printer as the protocol and give it the //machinename/sharename etc. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
