Find it under the Sharing tab of the printer's properties. If PRINTERNAME contains spaces, replace them with the code %20 in CUPS. -------- If your PC requires authentication, try smb://USER:PASSWORD@WORKGROUP/PCNAME/PRINTERNAME -------- You may need to modify your PC's firewall or security software to allow network printing.
