Yes, that's true.  But even if pServerName were non-NULL, it would not
have helped, since pShareName is empty.  The "AFICIO2018D" that you
needed to add to get printing correctly configured is nowhere to be
seen.

It would be interesting to see what does "net share" print on the
machine which exports the printer.
