I have a notebook with Windows Xp. This PC works connected both to my
office network and my home network.
At work I can print from this PC to any printer on the network, in
particular on a Epson 810 that is connected to a Linux box with RedHat 8.0
At home I have a Epson C70 connected to a Linux box with RedHat 9, but I
can't print on the Linux printer
I copied the smb.conf file from office to home that is:
#======================= Global Settings
[global]
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
printer = epson
load printers = yes
smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd
passwd chat = *New*password* %n\n *Retype*new*password* %n\n
*passwd:*all*authentication*tokens*updated*successfully*

__________________________________________________________________________--
When I send the print command from the Control Panel of Windows (the
test page print), i do not get any error, i see the Linux box working
for a while, but no output.
If i go to a terminal window on my Linux box :
[antonio@PC233 antonio]$ smbclient //PC233/epson
added interface ip=192.168.0.1 bcast=192.168.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
added interface ip=192.168.254.2 bcast=192.168.254.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
Password:
Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.2.7a]
smb: \>
and then use print any text file, i get the printer operating.
Furtermore, if I click on the epson icon on the Windows shares of my
Linux box I get that I cannot connect to my epson printer...
Any suggestion???
