If you're using CUPS, try this in your browser: http://localhost:631/printers and configure from there inside your browser. You're Device URI should be something like Device URI: smb://server/printername Please ensure that your /etc/samba/smb.conf is correct. regards, Didier --- PhD student Singapore Synchrotron Light Source (SSLS) 5 Research Link, Singapore 117603 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] Website: http://ssls.nus.edu.sg -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
