Setting up a printer for the network

[Sören Kuklau]

Hi,

I have an EPSON Stylus COLOR 740 printer which has a parallel, a USB 
and a (Mac) serial port. The machine running YDL (2.2) does not have 
USB, so I need to connect the printer through the serial port. Webmin 
does not appear to be aware of Mac serial ports: it only lists up the 
typical x86 LPT and COM ports, USB ports and "no device" as options. 
I've tried to access the CUPS web admin tool, but it refused access.

Thus, it seems I have to manually set it up. I've downloaded a PPD file 
from linux-printing.org for my printer.

I need the printer to work with both a SMB network (Samba is set up) as 
well as a AppleTalk network, since my iBook is able to access SMB 
*shares*, but not SMB *printers*.

TIA,
