URI Devices issue
Hi gurus,
I would like to migrate our windows print server to a debian linux but im newbie and i dont understand. when i try to add printer into Cups im going to localhost:631 and adding printers but i see this URI devices and i dont know how to deal with them? my test scenario is like this:

A network printer Minolta Pi3502 PCL5e (NP1) is connected to print server Trendnet TE100PS3 (PS1) i want to add this printer into the debian and make it available for all the users using samba. I did install the printer with the appropriate drivers but i dont understand how to point the debian to print on this printer. Do i need to have this Uri added to be able to print over the network? how can i point the printer NP1 which is already installed on the debian to connect to this PS1 and print?

if you need any additional information ask!

Thank you for your support, gurus!!
