DELL 720 printer shared on SAMBA??
I've unsuccessfully googled this problem. Maybe you folks know a solution. My wife received a freebie DEL 720 printer. It is really a relabeled Lexmark z600 type. By downloading a driver from Lexmark, I got the printer running on my FEDORA 4 machine. I want to share this printer using SAMBA. After installing the same driver on my FEDORA 3 machine its CUPS sees the remote printer and "installs" it. When I ask to print a test page it announces that it had sent the page. Nothing happens on the FEDORA 3 machine to which the printer is attached. It's CUPS says that nothing is in the printer's queue. Any ideas? Ken Jones

HI Ken, Take a look in /var/log/cups and see if those files there indicate any problem. On my system, I have access_log, error_log, and page_log. The access_log notes my attempts at connecting, while the error_log has been helpful to me in the past with error messages.

I googled this combo and found others with the same problem. One suggestion is to add a userid and password per smb://userid:passwd@workgroug/source/printer_name. This has not worked - yet.
