I set up an old laptop with Ubuntu Linux with the intention of making it a print server. I hooked up a printer to it, and set it to share all printers, yet when I go onto my Windows computers, neither it, nor the printer attached to it, show up. What should I do to make it successfully work as a print server?
How do you make a computer running Ubuntu Linux show up on a network of Widows computers?
You need to install Samba server and client. This is the Windows network messaging protocol.
Reply:Install and configure SAMBA on you linux machine and then add it to the windows network via the windows domain server.
