[Bug 575917] Re: Cannot setup remote printers to Windows XP from Ubuntu 10.04

[James Usmar]

Hi, It is fixed by the latest system_config_printers; you can now
navigate to a server/network and expand windows XP clients.

Thanks. 
James Usmar.

Status in “samba” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete

Bug description:
Binary package hint: system-config-printer

In pre-10.04 LTS versions of Ubuntu you could navigate to an Windows XP machine with a shared Printer and start using it. 
In Ubuntu 10.04 if you navigate to a Windows XP machine you just get the print$ share with a load of files under it. It used to show you an icon of the available printers.

Also using the System|Admin|Printing CUPS thing you cannot "scan" the
network and find a printer.

Something isn't working properly? I don't know - sorry.

Is it Samba or CUPS?
