I crossed few similar questions in the digest and the news group, however I
didn't cross the solution. I set a Linux Slackware as a samba server
(16p11) with HP LJ attached to its parallel port. The server takes care of
the print jobs too well; The server spool simply swallows print jobs. What
should be the set up to let an MS user (95/wfw) monitor ("lpq") and
control
("lprm") his print job from his native tools (w/o telnet).
Here is my stanza for the printer and the entry in printcap:
smb.conf:
[HP-LJ4]
comment = HP LaserJet 4/4M PostScript
browsable = yes
available = yes
public = no
force user = root
printer name = lj4m
print command = echo printing %s >> /tmp/print.log; /usr/bin/lpr -P%p
%f; rm %f
lpq command = /usr/bin/lpq %p
lprm command = /usr/bin/lprm -P%p %j
printable = yes
path = /tmp
create mode = 0700
Printcap:
lp|lj4m|HP-LaserJet 4/4M PostScript:\
:lp=/dev/lp1:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lj4m:\
:if=/var/spool/lpd/lj4m/ljet4m-filter:\
:mx#0:\
:sh:
I will appreciate any reply with a solution.
