Default http printing username problem

I have no clue. I sent your configuration to someone but they have not yet
responded.

Is the target server Windows?

I'm thinking the remote machine is UNIX of some sort. If it is, is SAMBA
running?



The remote server is a linux machine running a cups print server which
uses the IPP Protocol. To keep the system simple I don't want to use samba
if possible. It seems to me that XP is able to use the IPP protocol for
printing, including the possibility to use a specific username and
password. Isn't this possible without using samba?

Thanks, Benjamin.
