Hi, I have Panasonic KX-P7105 printer connected through LPT1 port to the "D-link DP-101P+" print server. This printer is defined as raw and I am using it only for printing from different windows clients. Drivers are only on windows client side. On linux side I never print one page. Suddenly, in windows print spooler I can see already printed documents from every user. As administrator I can remove them from list (cancel print job), but users can't cancel each others print jobs that is OK. On linux side everything is reported as there are no print jobs that is correct. All documents are printed as they should and moved to the completed jobs. Directory /var/spool/samba is empty. Until now everything was worked without any problem. I try to restart cups, smbd and nmbd. If I restart these services, print spooler on windows side is empty now, but it fills again. Where to start searching for problem? Zoran

[Samba] Print spooler full with completed print jobs - solved
Hi, I solve problem with deleting /var/lib/samba/printing/my_printer.tdb file. After that everything works well. Does somebody have a clue what went wrong?
