I have a Samsung CLP300 colour laser printer.
When I connected it to my laptop, in each of both Ubuntu 8.04 and
Debian 5, which was installed as a clean install, the printer was
automatically installed and set up (I didn't have to do anything - it
just appeared as an installed printer, ready to use).
Responsible for printing is CUPS. Please check if you have it installed
and all packages containing CUPS, that your other machine has installed.
You can get that list with `aptitude "~icups"`.
HIH,
Flo.
To see if you have all cups packages use
dpkg -l cups*
Have you used the interface to configure the printer?
ie http://localhost:631
I had a bit of work reconfiguring my printers when I switched to a USB
to parallel port connection.

b...@bretnewworkstation:~$ aptitude "~icups" | less
Unknown command "~icups"
One of the aptitude shortcuts I have yet to comprehend.
