samba - Nov 2003 - two printers: one works ok in w9x/2k, other printer unavailable in Win98 BUT ok in w2k!

Hi, you should first take a log on your cups ( or other print daemon) logs
to debug the problem
Best Regards

Hi all,
        I try to explain my strange Samba problem: I've done a linuxbox with
Mandrake 8.2 distro; installed Samba 2.2 packages and two printers attached
via parallel port: one works with the motherboard built-in parallel port,
the other is connected via a pci parallel port card. Both works fine on
win2000 clients (and on the linuxbox, too :); on windows 98 clients, both
printers are browseable in network neighborhood, but I'm able to install, on
the win98 boxes, ONLY one printer (and I can print fine using this
printer:-) the other seems to be offline, but it's false, because I can
print absolutely fine to it via w2k clients and linuxbox !

The linux box is a member server in an AD domain with Windows 2000 server as
PDC, clients are windows 2000 professional, windows 9x (some old machines),
Windows XP Professional.


Any help to understand the nature of this problem is greatly appreciated,
I've searched with google in the newsgroups and searched in some mailing
lists too, but it didn' help :(
