I had a problem with the printer connected to my LM system and printing from my Win client. I had configured the Lm printer thro' samba as 'dj400'. Had to modify my printers.conf in /etc/cups dir From <Default Printer lp> to <Default Printer dj400> restart CUPS and everything went fine. I think CUPS requires sama printer and the default printer names to be the same. Hope this helps Cheers Sridhar ----- Original Message ----- From: "Till Kamppeter" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Newsgroups: liste.expert To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "Nikodemus Karlsson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, November 17, 2000 8:21 PM Subject: Re: [expert] Two questions about cups > Go to > > http://www.mandrakeuser.org/hardware/#4th > > Till > > > Nikodemus Karlsson wrote: > > > > Hi! > > I have problems with network printing with cups.
