I'm trying to set up an HP Business Inkjet 2600 (USB connection) on my
FC3 box. It set up properly and I was able to print a test page (from
the linux box). Now, I'm trying to share the printer to the network.
Parts of that seemed to work as I can see the printer from my Windows
2000 machine & even install the printer. However, when I go in to the
properties of the printer from the Win2K machine, I get an 'access is
denied' error. I'm not sure what is wrong because I thought I enabled
anonymous access to the printer. I also made the changes (per the cups
documentation) in the /etc/samba/smb.conf file to match the following:
printcap name = cups / printing = cups. Here is the contents of my
cupsd.conf file:
<Location /admin>
#
# You definitely will want to limit access to the administration
functions.

# is a member of the system group to do any admin tasks. You can change
# the group name using the SystemGroup directive.

What am I doing wrong?? Thanks for all the previous help as well.
