Hi, I trying to print a label printer that is attached to a windows95 machine. The job is sent to the printer queue on the linux machine (Red Hat 7.3), but never printed on the printer. When I check the status of the print queue on the linux machine, I get the following: [root@S12601 syn]# lpq -Pbinpos Printer: binpos@S12601 Queue: no printable jobs in queue Server: no server active Status: job 'bdialin@S12601+410' removed at 10:46:58.356 Rank Owner/ID Class Job Files Size Time done root@S12601+219 A 219 (STDIN) 200 11:59:05 As far as I understand it, linux thinks the job has been printed or at least sent to the printer to be printed. Am I correct? Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you. Devinder Rajput Stores Division Corporate Offices Chicago, IL (773) 442-6474
This says no jobs are pending. I would look at the status logs in the printer queue to see if the print job was successfully processed by this queue.

Dear friends, I have been wrestling with this for 3 days now, unsucesfully, and that is why I ask for your help. I have a network composed of 1 linux server, 1 linux desktop, 2 windowsXP and 1 windows 98. The printer (Epson Stylus C42ux) is connected to the WindowsXp machine. I have Samba and CUPS installed and (apparently) correctly configured at the Linux server (Mandrake 9.1). I am able to access shares in the Linux Server (/home) from the Windows XP machine. Now here comes my problem. I want to be able to allow both the Linux server and the Linux desktop to print to the Windows XP printer. The printer is shared as EPSONSty. Some info: Machine ip WindowsXP 192.168.13.222 LinuxServer 192.168.13.216 I tried to set this up using the CIPS web based configuration utility (localhost:631). I managed to create the printer, and CUPS says it is all good to go. I send a test page and nothing comes out of the printer. Checking the /var/log/cups/error_lo I find: Unable to connect to SAMBA host, will retry in 60 seconds... This keeps happening and nothing comes out of the printer. So I started some troubleshooting: smbclient //windowsxp/epsonsty password: **** the response: tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_DUPLICATE_NAME hmmm.... Checked the /etc/hosts file and it is in there. IT IS the onlyu machine by that name in the network... Now if I try: smblient //192.168.13.222/epsonsty password:*** I get: smb:\> Works! I can "print <file> " and it prints... I am at a loss, it should be simple. Any ideas?
