[Techtalk] help configuring our printer (on a Windows server with samba) to my linux box using printtool.

[Rebecca J. Van Acker]

<<However, I get confused on the "share name" when setting up the
printer via printtool. Some of the howto's that I have
read show the share name as: \\computerName\\\\printer
while other howto's use \computerName\\printer.
Needless to say I am confused and would greatly
appreciate any help.>>

The sharename should be entered in printtool as:
\\computername\printer

HTH,
