HOW TO SHARE FOLDER AND PRINER ON UBUNTU & ZorinOSLite:

https://fedoraforum.org/forum/printthread.php?t=113307&pp=80

Next, we have to make sure CUPS is OK with the sharing. Open up Firefox or your other favourite browser and browse to:

http://localhost:631/printers

Now, browse to:

http://localhost:631/admin

. Make sure that 'Share published printers connected to this system' is checked (enabled).

Note: You need to have administrative privileges to edit the configuration file.

sudo vim /etc/samba/smb.conf

Add the following lines to the bottom of the config file.

[sambashare]
comment= Network Shared Folder by Samba Server on Ubuntu
path = /home/your_username/sambashare
force user = smbuser
force group = smbgroup
create mask = 0664
force create mode = 0664
directory mask = 0775
force directory mode = 0775
public = yes
read only = no

Remember to update the path parameter with your username. You can get your username by running the following command:

echo $USER

To exit the Vim editor after making your changes, simply type :wq and press the Enter key.
