Hello!
I'm having problems using my network shared printer. It is connected
to a linux box (via USB) where samba is running. I am using it to
enable my other windows boxes to share a printer.
It works fine on a local (Server) machine, but when I try to use it
from my other windows boxes, I have a problem - although it is stated
that the printer status is "Ready" it takes quite a while for "Print
dialog" to appear on my windows boxes. What could be the problem?
My configuration file:
# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup =
server string = %h server (Samba %v)
security = SHARE
map to guest = Bad User

passdb backend = tdbsam, guest

*Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n .
