XP and SuSE9.2 Pro printing help


if i recall correctly, to print from linux to XP i have to use SAMBA.. SuSE9.2 has this cool ability to setup Samba, however im having some trouble. My first question is, do i have to install anything on my XP server to connect the 2?

after that, what do i do??

thanks

open on the windows box the printer configuration menu select the printer with right mouse button and select to share the printer.

open on suse the printer configuration menu and select the connection option and find a smb or samba connection option, use in the share string the ip-address\sharename
