Install GUI package Gigolo <- to config access to windows shares easily in a GUI environment

https://www.linuxbabe.com/ubuntu/system-config-samba-ubuntu-16-04 <- to set up Mint (which is ubuntu) to share to windows machines via samba.

I found the webpage for the printer,and I seemed to have gotten it to install, but, it won't printer anything even though it says it sent the job to the printer.

Frustrating

Then I went and tried to set up Samba and went through everything as described in the article.

Sigh

I can't Windows machines from Linux, and I can't see Linux machine from Windows.

Even more frustrating

But hey, at least I figured out how link my files on the desktop. I'm batting 1 for 3 so far.......
