Hi
I've read the kde documentation and a number of other cups things on setting 
up printers but I'm still hopelessly lost.
I have a printer running on this machine and I want to enable my son's windoze 
laptop to print to it over the network. His school work has to be done under 
windoze unfortunately. (Wife's too !!!!!!!!)
The best way of doing this would seem to be to establish a named raw queue to 
the printer in addition to the one it already has. The printer is a samsung 
clp500 laser so the driver isn't open source but is well supported under 
Linux.
Can KDE control module do this and if so how do I do it. Alternatively, if 
anyone anywhere knows just how could I do this using cups? I'm not keen on 
the samba root.

but suse yast doesn't seem to offer the same facilities.
