Windows XP to Woody/Cups Printer? How?
Main computer is Debian Woody, 2.4.18 kernel connected through a Linksys
Wireless Point Router to a DSL modem. Printer is HP Deskjet 940c
installed with CUPS. KDE System print manager says its URI is
ipp://Phoenix:631/printers/lp. (Phoenix has nothing to do with software
of that name; I named the computer Phoenix because I have rebuilt it so
many times.)
Laptop (my grandson's, not mine, with his homework paper) is an IBM
Thinkpad, Windows XP with an Actiontec Wireless USB Adapter. Windows XP
Add Printer cannot find the Phoenix printer though it has no trouble
connecting to the internet through the Router.
If I reboot the main computer to Windows 98 (which I hate to do) the
laptop can find the printer. How can I persuade it to find the Debian
system?
