hello,
i am new with samba and try since 5 days to let my HPDeskjet 690c
print under NT 4.0 with a LINUX samba server.
I work with SuSE 6.2.
Printing with Linux / KDE /Staroffice is no problem.
the spool directory from smb.conf (/var/spool/lpd) i set
with chmod 777 writeable.
with KLpq / Klp / lpq i see the document incoming and outgoing,
but nothing happens!!!
what do i make wrong / what can I try?
does anybody has a similar configuration and a very easy possibility
to test the printer?
please help.
the printcap file was set automatically with YAST and should be ok.
here my very simple smb.conf:
[global]
workgroup = Munnerem
guest account = nobody
keep alive = 30
os level = 32
security = server
password server = 192.168.100.1
encrypt passwords = yes
printing = bsd
printcap name = /etc/printcap
load printers = yes
socket options = TCP_NODELAY
map to guest = Bad User
interfaces = 192.168.100.3/255.255.255.0
wins support = no
[printers]
comment = All Printers
browseable = no
printable = yes
public = no
read only = yes
create mode = 0777
print ok = yes
guest ok = yes
directory = /var/spool/lpd
; print command = /usr/bin/lpr -Plp
thanks a lot, berthold
