[Samba] summary: printing to Win95 local printer

[Kevin Lawton]

Ron,
We've got almost the same problem as you had, and its driving us crazy !
We're trying to migrate a Windows Me network over to Rh 8.0 and just can't
print from a Linux box to a Windows printer.
Would you be able to give us any pointers to succeeding with this, please ?
I can't say we're finding the CUPS docs too useful in this area - maybe we
haven't got all the doc that you've seen. Anything you can say about the
critical points of configuring Samba and CUPS would be really appreciated -
an example of how you achieved this, or pointers/links to the right bit of
documentation likewise.
Apologies for replying direct, but my posts to the samba list don't always
seem to make it.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
Kevin Lawton.
