hello,  I am a newbie at this.  Cannot access printer on my home network. Samba works ...i get on the network ok.

I go to  SYSTEMS -> PRINTER ,  and  I get a  PAGE that is grayed out.  I see  "all settings Printers"  and "add New Printer" button and also "no printers available"  in the white section.

the buttons do NOT work.   

IN smb.conf :   under Printers,  

     load printers = yes
#  LPR PRINTING***
     printng = cups
     printcap name = /etc/printcap

#  CUPS PRINTING *****
   printing = cups
   printcap name = cups

did i do this wrong ??
please help.
thank you

大家好,我是个新手。我在自己的家庭网络里面无法连接到打印机。Samba工作正常,我连接网络也OK。

我进入“系统”-“打印机”,页面却是灰色的。我在里面看到“所有打印机设置”和“添加打印机”按钮还有白色的区域显示着“无可用的打印机”。

按钮不管用

在 smb.conf 在打印机设置里面我是这样设置的:

load printers = yes
# LPR PRINTING***
printng = cups
printcap name = /etc/printcap

# CUPS PRINTING *****
printing = cups
printcap name = cups

不知道哪里出问题了呢?
请大家帮下忙,谢谢了。

thank you.
Name: the current user
Password. Current user's password

If you need to root, so set the root password
  1. sudo passwd root
Copy the Code

Sorry, my English is not good
