Hi there,

I own a domestic lan with two computers, mine and my mother's one. Mine is called GREENDEMON and the other one is called BLUEDEMON and they both are configured to run on the REDLOCAL workgroup. I've Debian Woody running on GREENDEMON and Windows 98 running on BLUDEMON, with an attached Nec Silentwriter Superscript 610 printer. This printer is only compatible with Windows 9x systems, and I want to set up samba so I can print jobs from my computer (GREENDEMON). The printer is shared in the Windows 98 System. Here it is a little description

GREENDEMON - IP 192.168.1.2   O.S. Debian
BLUEDEMON - IP 192.168.1.3  O.S. Windows 98 with a Nec Silenwriter Superscript 610

How can I print jobs from GREENDEMON using the shared printer? I've set up Debian quite good, so the only thing I really need is to use the printers.

Any replies could help. Thank you very much.

P.S. Sorry if my English isn't quite good, but I'm from Spain :-)
