[Samba] samba3, network printing, additional problems
Hello, First of all my thanks to everyone for their suggestions. I'm still having an issue getting this network printer going. I'm now getting a windows error from explorer.exe, i've checked all the windows system, application, and security logs and of course the error is not in them. I then turned samba's debug level to 10, reloaded it and tried again to access the printer. This error with explorer only occurs when i right click on the printer and select properties to add the driver. I'd like to use apw but i do need to get this working. Does anyone have this particular printer, an hp5550, working in a setting like this? I am trying to figure out what specific driver files are needed so i can pass them to rpcclient. It looks like the drivers on disk are in some kind of compressed form. Any suggestions welcome. Thanks. Dave. ________________________________________________________________ The best thing to hit the internet in years - Juno SpeedBand! Surf the web up to FIVE TIMES FASTER!

hi, i copied suse info, you should have no problems with that printer if you have newest kernel , cups and samba version http://hpoj.sourceforge.net/ will give you advice in general Best Regards Detailed information about product: DeskJet 5550C Actual settings: Architecture=i386 Distribution=8.1 Language=english Variation=none Supported: full Vendor Comment: For most HP OfficeJet printers there is a special driver package "hp-officeJet". Printing on a HP OfficeJet should work without this special package but for scanning you need to install and configure this special package. The package is already compiled for SuSE Linux. Therefore you don`t need to compile the software by yourself. For documentation see: file:/usr/share/doc/packages/hp-officeJet/index.html or online under http://hpoj.sourceforge.net/ Configurations: grayscale 300 dpi (using driver `hpijs`) - used by YaST2 as default grayscale 300 dpi draft (using driver `hpijs`) grayscale 300 dpi (using driver `stp`) monochrome 300 dpi (using driver `cdj500`) grayscale 600 dpi (using driver `hpijs`) grayscale 600 dpi (using driver `stp`) grayscale 600 dpi (using driver `cdj500`) color 300 dpi (using driver `hpijs`) - used by YaST2 as default color 300 dpi draft (using driver `hpijs`) color 300 dpi (using driver `stp`) color 300 dpi (using driver `cdj970`) color 300 dpi (using driver `cdj550`) color 300 dpi (using driver `cdj500`) color 600 dpi (using driver `hpijs`) - used by YaST2 as default color 600 dpi (using driver `stp`) color 600 dpi (using driver `cdj970`) photo 1200 dpi (using driver `hpijs`) - used by YaST2 as default SDB URLs: http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/jsmeix_print-kompatibel.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Available detail combinations to product: DeskJet 5550C all 9.0 8.2 8.1 8.0 SLES 8 SLD 1.0 SLES 7 7.3 7.2 7.1 7.0 6.4 all - - - - - - - - - - - - - i386 - - - full - - - - - - - - - amd64 - - - - - - - - - - - - - ia64 - - - - - - - - - - - - - axp - - - - - - - - - - - - - s390 - - - - - - - - - - - - - ppc - - - - - - - - - - - - - sparc - - - - - - - - - - - - - At the top all available distributions are listed.

Were you able to resolve this?
