Main computer is Debian Woody, 2.4.18 kernel connected through a Linksys Wireless Point Router to a DSL modem. Printer is HP Deskjet 940c installed with CUPS. KDE System print manager says its URI is ipp://Phoenix:631/printers/lp. (Phoenix has nothing to do with software of that name; I named the computer Phoenix because I have rebuilt it so many times.)

Laptop (my grandson's, not mine, with his homework paper) is an IBM Thinkpad, Windows XP with an Actiontec Wireless USB Adapter. Windows XP Add Printer cannot find the Phoenix printer though it has no trouble connecting to the internet through the Router.

If I reboot the main computer to Windows 98 (which I hate to do) the laptop can find the printer. How can I persuade it to find the Debian system?
