I am quite sure this question has been asked before but I can't find anything in the archive and Google does not turn up anything useful.
I have Fedora Core 5 with an HP LaserJet 5L printer connected to the LPT port. I also have the CUPS printer queue shared. I am trying to setup up a Windows XP laptop with wlan on my home network to be able to print to that printer. I have little understanding of how to make samba work. I have found a lot of information but most of it does not help me or make sense to me. I only want the win xp box to have access to the printer and nothing else. Do I have to setup a user account between FC5 and XP to make this work? I no basically nothing about XP. I don't know if I have FC5 configured to allow XP to see the printer. I have spent 9 hours trying to figure out how to setup two different OS and samba and one printer to work on both OS. I have made no progress in completing my objective. I don't know which way is up right now. Can some one help me?
