samba - Sep 2002 - Newbie SAMBA Printing question

Can SAMBA be used on Solaris9/SUN OS 5.8 to emulate a MicroSoft NetBeui client
and thereby print to a print server.

I have a printer(ps) that is netbeui only and want to print to it from a Sparc
station. lp and lpr are not available by TCP/IP.

Please respond off the board(direct-mail) as I'm sure this is too basic for
most users and I did not subscribe to list. I did search the archives and
didn't find anything.

Any ideas or references would be appreciated. The Using Samba book didn't
specify if SAMBA would create a printing client, as well as a server.
Also, could Imprints be used for the set-up ?

Thanks.

Regards,
Bob

The command to try to smbclient //server/printer
read man smbclient, especially about the -c option.
