This is not helpful information to us.
What doesn't work: What are you doing and what are the errors you are receiving?

It might be that the printer isn't publicly accessible. (My Windows system that uses the printer is connected to an active directory.)

You told us in your first post that
Quote:
it is simply a network printer (connected via a tcp/ip port) not connected to any machine
|
But now you are telling us that it
is connected to another machine with "active directory". I have
no idea what that means because I have not used windows since win98.

It is a networked printer. "publicly accessible" is not a feature of the printer itself, but the OS you are using to print to the printer. Please make up your mind which OS you wish to use to print to the printer: If the printer is connected to a MS network, you need
samba, if it is linux, you need
cups
Please be consistent.
If you do not know how your network is set up, and you are unable to tell us, then we will be probably be unable to help.

Please do that.
