Due to some crash of my laptop I decide to ditch Dapper and switch to Feisty. This is the first time I decided to install Xubuntu. Before I usually used Ubuntu with XFCE.
The installation was fine but I ran into trouble trying to add Windows samba printer. I used Settings/Printing. The programme properly identified my shared printer by clicking on it did not add the printer's address in the upper window (smb:// ...). I tried to do it manually by enabling localhost:631 and using cups interface, but still I cannot do it. I think I have the address wrong for some reason. I tried to run smbtree: > ~$ smbtree > Password: > WORKGROUP > \\NECAPTOP necaptop server (Samba, Ubuntu) > \\NECAPTOP\IPC$ IPC Service (necaptop server > (Samba, Ubuntu)) > \\NECAPTOP\etc_nec > \\NECAPTOP\sveta > \\NECAPTOP\sasha > \\NECAPTOP\alex > \\NECAPTOP\print$ Printer Drivers > \\AC-PC Al's Uber PC > \\AC-PC\diskl > \\AC-PC\L$ Default share > \\AC-PC\C$ Default share > \\AC-PC\H$ Default share > \\AC-PC\ADMIN$ Remote Admin > \\AC-PC\dx3800 EPSON Stylus DX3800 Series > \\AC-PC\diskd > \\AC-PC\print$ Printer Drivers > \\AC-PC\SharedDocs > \\AC-PC\D$ Default share > \\AC-PC\IPC$ Remote IPC > \\AC-PC\diskh So I put smb://WORKGROUP/AK-PC/dx3800, but CUPS shows > "Unable to connect to CIFS host, will retry in 60 seconds..." -- xubuntu-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel
