Hey Y'all,

I've been trying for months to get samba to share my printer with my
wife's Win XP machine.  I've RTFM, and spent hours on

google to no avail.


I can't see the printer from Windows so I can't mount it

up.  Nothing

appears in the logs.  The file shares work just fine.

It looks like I've got Samba 3.6.9 on this machine:

Is there anything else I can share with you that will help you to
diagnose my problem?


Have you checked the CUPS printer sharing?


Sure enough.  The printer shared check box is checked so
that's not the
problem.

Okay, I pasted in your global and printers section, restarted smbservice, deleted the printer from the Win XP machine, and thenreconnected to it with the add printer tool on XP. Now when I send atest file the file is accepted but does not print.
