When I call
$ net view sesabln1
Freigegebene Ressourcen auf sesabln1



Name         Typ          Lokal    Beschreibung

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HPLaserJ4050_Raum_6
             Drucker 
HPLJ4050_R6  Drucker

so I use HPLJ4050_R6 (see above) as a printer on the server sesabln1.
Don't know exactly how this maps on the gui ;-).
