Hello,
I just started using Kubuntu 10.10.

I finnally managed to get samba working nicely (I have some backed up files on XP computer) using this guide: http://www.ghacks.net/2010/02/18/easy-f ... n-kde-4-4/


I installed the missing: kdenetwork-filesharing and now it works. BUt how do i get the printer to show up?

I went to system settings-> sharing but all settings are greyed out. and i mean all.

i used Ubunu (GNOME) before and all worked nicelly. But here i just don't know how to proceed. I am still a bit lost in the menus. I am sure i will get used to it afterall it's only been a day. And i believe this is my final issue to resolve.

You may need to go into CUPS (not accessible through System Settings, your distro may have a configuration tool for it) and enable network sharing. Samba usually has network sharing for printers enabled by default.

Hi Gregor3000,

Have you solved the problem.

I'm just trying out Kubuntu on my old system and I am having the same prblem like yours. Please post the solution (if possible in clear steps).

Thanks in advance
