[Samba] Why Are Some Users' Print Jobs Always Held Pending?
CUPS Version: 1.1.23-10sarge1 I believe this to be a CUPS problem, but since it only seems to affect users printing via Samba, perhaps it has been encountered by others here. I have cups installed and can print to it via Linux just fine. I also have installed via Samba (via "cupsaddsmb") and most WinXP users can print just fine, too. However, a few (3 of about 20) users have the odd problem that every one of their print jobs gets put in the queue and held. I have to manually go in to the web interface and click "release job" for every one of them. The other 17 or so users have their jobs go straight through. All WinXP machines are on the same subnet on the same domain with identical (automated, unattended) installations. The cups logs show that the jobs are being held but do not state any reason why. What would cause the jobs of a few users to be held while others print immediately? Can I increase the log verbosity to tell why jobs are held?
