    I posted a message in the last few days with details on how I setup
    linux to windows printing.

    I believe the real trick is very careful attention to user permissions
    and login data when setting up the printer on both the linux and windows
    side.

    Make sure you configure samba to be in the same workgroup and use user
    security.

    With Red Hat 8.0 I had given up on this also. Once I had it working
    with FC1 I was able to go back and sort out Red Hat 8.0 printing. In
    that case I was unable to the the redhat-config-printer tool, I had to
    use the CUPS interface to setup the print queue.

    In FC1 and FC2 I was able use system-config-printer to set everything
    up.
