[Samba] small problem with printing within excel

[Alex Sharaz]

hi all,

Got a small problem with an xp client here. A user is running a windows XP
machine which has office xp installed. Both xp and office  have the full set of
patches istalled. The user isn't using roaming profiles and has a number of
drive mappings set up on his system to access directories on a RH 8.0 box
running samba.

While he can access word,powerpoint and access files that live on the server
o.k., when he opens an exel spreadsheet he can do everything except print from
it.

When he tries, he gets a message saying "There was a problem retrieving printer
information for this object. The object may have been sent to a printer that is
unavailable" 


Any clues tips, pointers as to what the problem/solution  is greatly
appreciated

Alex
