Hello,

Last week, I upgrade my PC (at home) from FC3 to FC6. I setup the printer (HP920C) under CUPS. All ik OK (as usually with CUPS).

Then, I go on to my windows XP client in the aim to re-install this printer NOT through Samba but directly with IPP (http://serveur:631/printers/HP920C) and I was really surprised that Windows don't ask me where the driver is. I suppose that the driver was automatic installed, but by who : CUPS or Windows ?

Can anyone help me on this question and tell me where could I find a complete link about the automatic installation driver under windows XP when using IPP.

Thanks for your help

Rémy
