How Can I share the printer which is installed in Windows XP Node. I
want to use it in Linux System.
Get a "Printer Server" and put your printer on your local network. I use a Netgear unit and it works well with my Linux, WinXP and Win98 machines. The nice thing about a separate Printer Server is that you don't need to leave a computer on all the time to print.
If only I could get Linux to recognise my main Konica-Minolta Magicolor 2300DL which sits directly on the network and is seen by all flavours of Windows. (OK I'm not a Linux expert - just learning)
