This will go faster if we know more about the software you are using to
connect to the printer. If the printer is a "network" printer connected
via a 'network printer hub" you will need the IP address of the hub and
the port to which the printer is connected. if it is connected to a
windows network you may need to install samba to use it. If it is
connected 'directly to the computer that has debian installed, it is not
really a network printer. You will also need a printer software
interface. I strongly suggest cups as it may be managed adequately from
a web interface located at http://localhost:631 on most machines.
another very useful tool for managing all of this is webmin. Look into
it.
Hope this helps!
