Another impatience question.
I've configured my box to connect to a shared
printer on a windblows98 box.
Setting up is done on CUPS,
<Printer @Win98>
Info
Location
DeviceURI smb://user:password@someip/sharedprinter
State Idle
Accepting Yes
JobSheets none none
QuotaPeriod 0
PageLimit 0
KLimit 0
</Printer>
My setup (which works) involves
smb://MSHOME/computer/sharedprinter
If the authentication for Samba is correct and you
designate the printer as shared in Windows, the
password must not need to be given here. I'm something
of a novice with this myself, but as no one else has
come forward, I'm commenting on it.
