Author FC3 upgrade problems

I have just installed FC3, which has removed several niggling problems but
left me with two more one serious and one less so.

Under FC2 There used to be an icon, in the window "Computer" for my windows
disc. That icon is no longer there; I can get at the disc by running
"browse filing system" and entering "/mnt/windows". The icon was more
convenient; how can I get it back?

I can't get my printer to print. It is a Canon S200 and under FC2 I used to
use the S300 driver which was good enough for black and white but didn't
place colours on the page correctly. Now, neither the S200 nor S300 printer
drivers give any output to the printer although they both report that
printing has been done.

Any ideas, please?

create a link to the /mnt/windows wherever you need it. I have a link
~/mydocuments to "My Documents" on my XP partition. It always available
since I added the Windows partition to /etc/fstab even though I specified
noauto option in fstab.
