ok, i have never had a need for this until now. i have a suse 10.0 server/desktop and an hp 
all-in-one 4200 connected to it via usb. the printer is not shared. it's set up as a local printer 
only. i have several laptops at home that need to use his printer. the 3 laptops have windows xp, 
windows 2000, and ubuntu 5.10. i get a wireless internet connection via dsl and a 4 port netgear 
wifi router. before i even get started...what is the best way to share this printer? i do not have 
samba running at all but i can set it up if i need to. i use ssh to get into my suse server.

should i use: printer server? or samba? or ...

i have already posted this question on the suse forums. just thought i'd ask you guys too.
