Hello,
I'm trying to get priting working from a Windows XP box to a printer
that's been shared via SAMBA.
I can browse the printer fine, and can print fine from linux, but not from
Windows.
The following errors appear in the SAMBA log for the windows host I'm
printing from:
lp: unable to print file: client-error-not-found
lpstat: Unknown destination "level3-bw"!
The error_log for CUPS, reports:
print_job: resource name '/printers/lvl3-bw' no good!
For reference, here's my smb.conf:
[global]
netbios name = HOMER

passdb backend = tdbsam
os level = 64
preferred master = yes

Help please, I'm pulling my hair out over this.
