Thumbs up How do I setup my brother MFC410cn to the network hub


I brought a Brother MFC410cn and then upgraded my PC to Xandros(debian) linux, but I have to go to My old MS XP system to print anything off. (at best annoying).
Can someone please help with a solution to this problem.

Very Much Appreciated, THANKYOU!!

==================================================
Update:
*********
NOTES for XANDROS (debian) users
if you are using Xandros this is a debian based system. Look at the notes at the bottom of the page and you will need before you start csh, which is not installed on your system by default.
To obtain csh
Xandros Networks
Edit
Set Application Sources
Check Debian Unsupported Sites
OK
In the Search Box at the top of your screen type 'csh' and click search
on the lwft hand side of the screen click Expert (which should have brackets with a number in i.e. (13)
Scroll down the list until you find csh and click on install
***********************************************************

This problem has been resolved using the following setup options:
use the instructions as supplied by Brother
http://solutions.brother.com/linux/s...r_drivers.html
and then
http://solutions.brother.com/linux/s...r_install.html

When you have completed

//localhost:631/admin

User Name
password

(setup printer)
in the Device URL: box enter 'socket://' and the ipaddress that you have setup on your printer lan settings.

Any further queries, feel free to email me xtr11204101@ztra.co.nz

I haven't done 'down-the-hall' printing, nor know Xandros, but I'm thinknig Samba is where your solution lies.

(And I haven't, *yet!*, gotten aroung to Samba, either, but I *have* seen this referred to many times in this context -- search here & maybe at www.google.com/linux for this... I'd start here at LQO.)
LOL,
