Hello,

I have an FC4 box (CLEAN install) peer-to-peer with a WinXP box. My
Deskjet3845 is on the XP box. I can read/write shareddocs on the xp box
from the FC4 box (samba). I can't see the FC4 box from the xp box.

A print queue is setup on the FC4 box to use the networked HP
printer. Printing to it generates no errors on FC4. The print queue
manager on the XP shows the document spooling, then printing. The printer
rumbles and whirrs but creates no document. The XP printer queue never
"finishes." Canceling the print job updates its status to "Deleting," but
that function never finishes, either. Ultimately, I have to reboot the XP
to clear the print queue to allow new print jobs.

Any help?
