installing a printer

[Sandip P Deshmukh]

hello all!

this is a question that comes from a windows user shifting to linux.

i have debian 3.0 installed, up and running.

i recently have attached an hp710c printer to the lpt1 port. and i do not have any set-up cds, floppies, etc.

windows way of 'installing' the printer would be to add printer in printer folder and so on.

how do i do it in linux? is there a simple way of doing it?

and how do i 'install' networed printers? printers connected to our lan that runs on winnt?

can i choose default printer, etc like i used to do in windows?

thanx in advance

- sandip
