Hopefully someone can give me some help. At my office, I run Ubuntu 10.04 on my computer. I am trying to connect to a printer over the network that is connected directly to a Windows XP machine. I have gone through all of the steps to install the printer. I have Samba. The printer is shared on the XP machine. I have the drivers.
Running 11.04
SMB printer HP Photosmart 7150 shared by Windows XP sp3
USB printer Epson CX8400 AIO and yes everything works
1. Sent job to SMB printer and waited but no response so I sent the same job to the USB printer.
2. USB printer did not respond so I sent the same job back to the SMB printer and it started to print.
3. After the SMB job was finished the USB job started to print.
4.
An example is when I queue a bunch of print jobs, it prints 1 or 2 jobs, but each successive job disables the printer, so I have to go into the Printing icon under Other in the Apps menu, and physically enable the printer.
Any ideas on how to keep it enabled?
Thanks!
Hi all,I have a Canon MP600 printer/scanner connected via USB to a small print- and scan-server running Arch (last update was yesterday). The printer is shared over the network and can be accessed from a Windows 7 client. But from time to time after 1-2 prints the printer crashes. I that happens, only a power disconnect can bring it back.

Hello all
I'm having trouble getting my networked printer to print and am hoping someone can lend some advice. I'm running openSUSe 11.3 on a laptop and the printer is connected to my desktop which is running Windows XP. I have the printer and several folders and drives shared. I can see the folders and drivers on my laptop but I cannot get the printer to actually print.
Using 11.10.
After installing the special cupswrapper driver for my printer (brother mfc-7220) it works fine when it's directly connected to my computer.
However, when I network the same printer through my router, it prints the job fine but also spits out two or three extra blank pages at the end of each print job.
I am trying to setup up an HP Officejet G85xi printer through an Iomega Home Media Network Hard Drive, so that the printer can be shared over the network without requiring that an attached computer be turned on to print. There is a place on the back of the Network Hard Drive to plug in the printer with USB.
