How to connect and print on a corporate, stand-alone printer?

[baz]

Hi,

I would like to connect to one of our big stand-alone corporate printers. In Ubuntu I simply opened up the printer setup interface, and magically it showed up ready to be used.

Do I need to install CUPS for this, or just SMB or something else? I read some other threads on printing but they focused on being connected to Windows machines, or providing the printing services, etc.

Thanks.

I have the same question. Please help us...

This probably depends on your corporate network and its security setup and so on - you may be able to print using cups and the ip address of the printer in question?
