Hello,

I am trying to use Mandrake 8.0 as my desktop system at work. Most things are 
working fine except I can't seem to get remote printing to work. I have set 
up the printer using drakconf and it seems to think it sets up correctly, but 
when it send out test pages they don't print. 

The printer is an HP Laserjet 2200D shared from a Win2000 intranet server. My 
windows partition can print to it fine. 

The only piece of information I'm not sure I know that drakconf asks for is 
the server's SMB name. As it apparently can be different than the TCP/IP 
computer name. 

I don't know if this is a Samba problem or a printer problem. If there is 
something that I need to do to the win2000 box it's no problem; I have admin 
access to it. 

Any help will be very greatly appreciated. I'd hate to have to go back to 
Windows. 

Thanks,

Glen
