I just recently upgraded from 7.10 to 8.04. Since then I can not print from my Windows XP machine over the network to the printer connected to my Linux machine. Previously, with 7.10, this setup worked perfectly and I elected to keep my original /etc/samba/smb.conf file so nothing has changed. I can print from the Linux machine to which the printer is connected but I can not print over the network.
Here is my smb.conf file.
All help is greatly appreciated...
Mike
Here is my smb.conf file.
