I can print normally but NOT in color to my HP DJ 895cxi which is a colour printer. Any help on this? 2. I have shared my printer using Samba but when i try to use it from a PC by mapping it to LPT on the PC, I get the error mesg that 'the share name was not found' The other shares I have are accessible rw as I defined in smb.conf, why not the printer, even though it is visible as a share?
