** Description changed: Binary package hint: kdeprint OR a samba-related package Basically, I was trying to install a printer attached to a Windows XP machine through KDEPrint. I selected Windows SMB, then tried anonymous login (seeing as Windows File and Printer Sharing needed no password). I hit 'Scan' and I saw the network name and computers, but I kept getting an "Error returning browse list: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED" I tried using guest but I was not able to scan the network. I searched for the error on the Internet, and I found a solution here: http://www.mepis.org/node/3458 First, scan the network with anonymous login, then go back and select guest. Now, WITHOUT scanning again, expand the host with the printer: - Viola! printer found. + Voila! printer found. However, as a user, I should not have to use this workaround to install a printer (however painless) since the workaround is not at all intuitive. The guest selection should be able to expand the network tree to browse for a printer.
