You need the printer drivers on windows I think, but otherwise should just work... but that's from memory...
Hi Andrew, Nope, I do not use ipp. I use normail Add printer wizard, and find it from browsing the network and add it (says \\server\S2500). When being asked for driver, I locate to where the Windows driver is (actually it ks a Dell S2500 and the driver library of Windows has it already) and setup it. I do not know where those "ipp" errors come from, and do not know how to fix it either :). Another thing: when setup printer in Ubuntu client, I use Add printer wizard also, and it works just fine but still gives the ipp error :(. So I guess this should be my configuration issue, something is wrong here. KC. hth
