I'm trying to get a network printer working, and can't seem to get the 
last step to work. The printer works fine for the host.

Virtualbox 1.6.6  Ubuntu 8.04 Host & XP Pro guest
-------------
In XP
Add Printer Wizard
Connect to a printer on the internet or on a home or office network.

URL   http://192.168.0.101:9100/printers/BrotherHL-2070N

...This will cause the printer output:

POST /printer/BrotherHL-2070N HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: application/ipp
User-AGent: Internet Print Provider
Host: 192.168.0.101:9100
Content-Length: 141
Connection: Keep-Alive
Cache-Control: no-cache

But then the wizard reports that it can't find the printer.
--------------

Below is some sys data I collected trying to get this to work, although 
I don't know if any of this applies.

Any help to get this working would be much appreciated. It will save my 
college student daughter a long trip to complete a simple homework 
assignment.


Thanks
Mark
