→Configuring a Printer Connected to a Windows System
If the shared printer requires authentication you can choose to be prompted for the login and password each time the printer is accessed, or to store these credentials in the Ubuntu printer manager so that they do not need to be manually entered for each print job.
Having selected the correct printer, click on ''Verify'' to confirm that the printer is accessible to Ubuntu. If the verification is successful, a message dialog will report ''Print Share Verified''. Assuming a successful verification, click ''Forward'' and follow the steps outlined in the previous section to select an appropriate printer driver.
