Hello,
some of our costumers are printing with a SuSE Linux 7.2 in an existing
printqueue
who is connecting the smbprint-script using the smbclient command. When
we print in this queue the print job can not be printed on an Windows98
printer share. When we modify the smbprint it works, but we must wait
before
print job starts:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------
# NOTE You may wish to add the line `echo translate' if you want automatic
# CR/LF translation when printing.
if [ $TRANS -eq 1 ]; then
echo translate
fi
sleep 5 < New/Modified entry
echo "print -"
cat
) | /usr/bin/smbclient "\\\\$server\\$service" $password -U $server -N
-P>> $lo
gfile
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------
With the sleep command we can print on several printers. Output of
smb-print is
like this
smb: \> print -
putting file - as stdin-17322 (65.2 kb/s) (average 65.2 kb/s)
server Corex06, service Drucker06

added interface ip=192.168.1.50 bcast=192.168.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
Without sleep we can get a connect, but we get output to smb-print.log
like:
smb:\> ?akljdsfjadf??akjdsfkj <the print data>
Is there any timeout problem ? But how can we solve this problem without
using "sleep".
Thanks for quick answer
Best regards
