I am setting up printing services on a Suse 10.1 server useing Samba 3.0.22
I can create a printer on an XP client and connect to the Samba printer
share. I can the print a test page from XP.
The print file gets to the server (see logs below), but nothing prints
I can print files from Linux to the printer OK
Any suggestions will be appreciated
