I do not know where to post this so forgive me if it is in the wrong place. I had a almost perfect printer system on a winxp machine accessed by my Ubuntu 8.4 when i upgraded to 9.04 I can not print. I can work with all the folders on my winxp machine from the Ubuntu machine. The printer seems to have become invisible to the Ubuntu machine.  I am a newbie and although technically Ok I wanted to use Ubuntu so I wouldn't have all the irritations of a winxp system.. now It seems I cannot escape ..
I do not have Samba connected printers showing in the System>admin>printing dialog.. it does show other options none of which seem to apply, if I pick Networked printers then even with all the variations of IP for winxp ect I get nowhere. Is there a way to diagnose this bug ? If anyone can give me detailed info on doin g so I will be pleased to try. Maybe the bug can then be fixed for everyone.
