Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: system-config-printer-gnome
Hello,
[Details]:
I tried to configure a printer in my Ubuntu 11.04 via system-config-
printer-gnome, but I couldn't because I could find the printer in my
Samba Network, but when I tried to test the accessibility of the
printer, it failed even with the correct authentication username and
password...
[Workaround]:
So I had to change the share name of the printer, removing all the
spaces it had... And with that I could connect to it normally.
[Problem]:
"system-config-printer-gnome" can't connect to a Samba remote printer
that has spaces in it's share name...
[Informations Related to the OS's used to test the Issue]:
OS of the computer that has the Remote Printer: Windows 7 Ultimate x86
SP1 with Kaspersky Firewall allowing file, folder and printer sharing...
OS of my Machine (I used it to connect to the remote printer): Ubuntu
11.04 and Kubuntu 11.04
Thanks for your help,
André M.
