Hello Brian,
There is a very annoying problem with UNIX systems and network printing. On
nearly all SYSV systems the spooler stores only the address of the
(temporarily) print file. This does not cause any problem if it is created
by a local application. If the temporarily print file was created via a
network application (Samba, NFS, etc.) it will be removed shortly
afterwards. In the most cases the spooler is not able to print the file in
time. To avoid this problem you have to advise the spooler to copy the file
first into the spooling area before printing. An entry for SYSV printing in
smb.conf would look like the following:
print command = /usr/bin/lp -c -d%p %s; rm %s
