Hi Roy,<div><br></div><div>I remember setting up a cyber cafe in 7.10 and having issues sharing the printer (1020). I managed to do that by sharing the printer and (very fuzzy memory) assigning an ip to the printer such that it is available in the lan!</div>
<div><br></div><div>Downloading HPLIP or a utility for sharing HP printers on linux helped. I cannot quite remember whether it was on samba or NFS........hope i have helped a little!</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers<br><br>

Hi all,<div><br></div><div>anyone managed to share a usb HP_LaserJet_1020 printer on ubuntu hardy (8.04) on a lan?</div><div><br></div><div>i have tried reading as much doc&#39;s with no success. Actually, the printer works fine on one machine(Hardy), but when i share the printer to be accessed by other Hardy clients on the lan.....the printing from these clients tends to &quot;freeze/hang&quot; and does not print. I have tried using the different protocols (ipp, HP Direct, Samba) without success.</div>

<div><br></div><div>Anyone who&#39;s got this working or with any tricks under the sleeves that might solve this nightmare? </div><div><br></div><div>I&#39;d appreciate.</div>
