OK, I have set up my network to make Fedora my server. My wife's laptop is
running WinXP Home. I am able to see each computer from the other computer
and can share files. I also am able to install the two printers that are
physically connected to the Linux box onto the WinXP box. I am not able,
however, to get it to print from WinXP. I try to print a test page from
WinXP and it says that the test page has been printed, but nothing happens
at the printer. It's like it just disappears after leaving the WinXP box.
Can anyone help with this? I don't know anything about cups, so do I need
to do something with that?

Thanks!!!
