recognizing network printer
 

I have a home network using a Linksys router. Just installed Ubuntu on a separate drive on my old W98 computer. (dual boot) I want to be able to print from Ubuntu but have no idea how to configure Ubuntu to recognize the print server. When I access the router from my XP computer it sees the W98 OS, but not when I am running Ubuntu. However, I am able to get on the Internet. In the printer setup in Ubuntu, I've tried to use the Samba? setup for a new printer, however, the requirements are in this sequence: smb://[workgroup/]server[:port]//printer.
Knowing virtually nothing about linux, I am in a loss as to what information to put in. I know the workgroup name, the printer port is 192.168.1.100, and I'm assuming the necessary information for the //printer is the print server designation of PS00E880. Oh, by the way, I did this in the GUI environment. I know how to get to the terminal mode, but not what to do there. If no one wants to deal with an issue this trivial I'll understand

Hi linux aspire, Welcome to lq. Have a look at this.
Good luck. ;-)
