Hello, I need help on the following problem: I want to send "extended" print job status information to a windows host via samba (2.0.7), e.g. if a job gets canceled. --> background: I've developed an accounting system (based on LPRng) that checks whether a valid printing account exists etc. --> aim: I want to send a message to the owner of the print job that appears in the windows printer status window or in an extra pop up. I would prefer a solution that e.g. extends the 'lpq command'. thanks for your help christoph
