<br>
<br>
I have two computers,
<br>
<br>
1. A desktop to which my printer is attached. The desktop
computer is a Linux machine and acts as a samba server.
<br>
<br>
2. A laptop which dual boots Windows 7 and Linux.
<br>
<br>
The problem is printing with the laptop. The printer works
correctly when corrected directly to the laptop or the desktop so
I am sure that it is not a printer hardware problem. When I try
to print something on the laptop using the samba network, the job
goes to the desktop for printing but nothing is printed. When I
view the printer queue, the laptops print job is shown but its
status is "held". I tried everything to get the print job to
print but no success. I'm sure I overlooked something, but what
is it? Any suggestions?
