Hopefully someone can lend me a hand. I just reinstalled Redhat (8.0) on my system and am trying to configue my system to print to a printer that is on another computer on my local network (it's already networked - I print to it with my other networked PC and XP on this box). I've made it as far as the printer config. It's asking me to configure a Windows Print Queue. Here is the data it is asking me for and the values I've already entered:
Share -
Host IP - 192.168.0.4
Workgroup - DEN <---- that's what I named the workgroup when i set it up originally it's 3 PC's through a router
User -
Pass -
I don't know what to put for the share. Maybe it's just me but shouldn't I put the name of the computer on the network that has the printer attached? As far as the user and pass goes they aren't required since I set them with no user and pass required, or would I need to use a user and pass to print to it?. Any light that you folks can help me shed on this would be great. Thanks.
