Network Printer not seen (SOLVED_)

Postby grau on Tue Jun 05, 2012 1:49 am

I have a printer connected to another computer on my router. I had previously connected to it but with Mint 13, I can't not see it at all. I have read through many of the "network printer" topics, but none of their solutions work. The strange thing is that I can see and print from it when I use my virtual XP machine (VirtualBox). I am a novice and I am not extremely familiar with terminal commands, but I can follow directions. Anyone experience this?

Linux Mint is funded by ads and donations.

Got the following from Terminal:


ric@ric-System-Product-Name ~ $ system-config-printer
no talloc stackframe around, leaking memory
got no contact to IPC$
Caught non-fatal exception. Traceback:
File "/usr/share/system-config-printer/newprinter.py", line 1974, in on_tvSMBBrowser_row_expanded
smbc_auth.failed (e)
File "/usr/share/system-config-printer/pysmb.py", line 182, in failed
raise exc
TimedOutError: (110, 'Connection timed out')
Continuing anyway..

Does anyone know what it means? I still can not see network or network printers. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Solved this issue. Of course, it was a "FirewallD" issue (config printer resolve that part) and my router. Something happened and it would not share the network.

DO LOVE 13!!!
