I currently have two machinces one running FC3 and the other FC4. I have set up Samba networking but am unable to workout network printing. I have tried various configurations which I have found in other posts but none of these seem to work. I can print from the machine that the printer is on but not over the network

The printer queue type is set to 'Networked CUPS IPP fort he networked machine
For the machine that the printer is connected to the queue type is direct connect LPT
The server is 10.0.0.7 (the machine the printer is connected to)
Path is /var/spool/samba
Queue is not availab le to other computers
My smb.conf file is as follows


#
#======================= Global Settings =====================================
[global]
workgroup = mshome
netbios name = bart

server string = Samba Server

printcap name = /etc/printcap
load printers = yes

cups options = raw

username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
password server = None
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192

#============================ Share Definitions ==============================

[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
printable = Yes
browseable = No
use client driver = Yes

[klem]

can someone please point out where i am going wrong

I haven't tried to enable samba network printing, but perhaps
browseable = Yes
could have a influence
And also, see to fine-tune the firewall. As a test-case you can try to turn the firewall off to determine if it's a firewall issue (#service iptables stop)
