Ot, getting win xp working with a samba printer

[Sina Bahram]

Actually it does clarrify things

The problem is that you need to say that the printer is local, ok? Then
shift+tab up, and select the checkbox that doesn't say use one of the
following ports ... It's like, make a new port or create a new port.

Then you hit next or whatever ... Like you said, you know what's going on,
and then when you get to the next combo box, you go to the very bottom,
which has standard tcp/ip port ... Select that sucker, give it an IP and a
name ... And you're good to go.

Take care,
Sina

If I knew why I couldn't install the printer, I would not be asking for help
here. Also, I understand the procedure of installing a printer under
windows. If I in fact try to install this printer driver as a local printer,
supposedly connected to lpt1 (which is just pretend in this case of course),
the printer installs just fine. The problem happens when I try to install
the printer as "a network printer, or a printer attached to another
computer". Hope that clarifies things a bit more.
