Printer Error - Invalid Printer Name

V5 Question
1

ive just done a fresh install onto a windows surface pro tablet and copied my database across from my dev PC.

Ive installed my printer Star TSP100III just like on my dev PC

I selected the printer from the drop down list in Samba but when I print i get an error saying printer name invalid, but the printer DOES print.

Any thoughts why im getting the error as the printer name is correct as it just selected from the drop down so is identical to how it is setup in windows

EDIT: nevermind i fixed it, when i set it up on the tablet i called it a different name to how it is setup on my dev PC so even though everything looked OK setting wise samba was still looking for the name as it was on my dev PC. I changed it to that and problem solved!
