Hi, I'd like to be able to use KDEs kprinter (kprinter --stdin) as alternative printer for my wine driven apps (e.g. winword). What I like especially is the fine working PDF printer and the feature to attach the PDF immediately to an email. I tried already the cups-pdf printer. But this driver doesn't create valid PDF for my MS WORD...

I am running wine 20050725 under KDE/Debain/testing with binaries from deb http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/ binary/ on the client in question. I am trying to print from QuickBooks 6 to a printer server (Brother HL1240) running cups 1.1.18. The client is accessing the printer from kprinter and printing from the native Linux applications with no problem. When I try to print from QuickBooks I get this error: err:psdrv:PSDRV_FindPrinterInfo Error 2 getting PPD file name for printer 'HL1240' The server cupsd error log shows D [19/Sep/2005:13:19:48 -0700] AcceptClient() 3 from...

Hi, I have a wine working for an application called Infovet that is written in Visual Basic, i guess (there is a dll called Vbrun200.dll). Everything but printing works fine. I tested with notepad.exe that comes with wine and it worked well. The printer was detected, kprinter was started and the page is OK. Here is my config: karin@servidor:/home/infovet/drive_c/infovet$ dpkg -l | grep wine ii libwine 0.9.9-1 Windows API Implementation (Library) ii libwine-print 0.9.9-1...

...gt; the output is routed to the physical printer, rather than a pdf. > This is a known problem. cups-pdf is not a "real printer", and Wine can't work with it as-is. The only way I got anywhere with this is modifying a printer port (see registry bellow) to be something like "|kprinter" (KDE's print manager). This makes Wine pipe it's output through manager where you can choose which printer to use. Code: [HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers\HPLaserJetIII] Port="|kprinter"

This behaviour has been consistent on FreeBSD -Current since 5.0-RELEASE. I am now running 5.1-CURRENT with cups-1.1.19.0 and wine from CVS yesterday afternoon. Wine *is* seeing my cups printers and I can print to them from the command line, from kprinter, etc. However, when trying to print from, say, notepad, I receive the following errors for any of my printers: fixme:commdlg:PRINTDLG_SetUpPrinterListComboW Can't find '(null)' in printer list so trying to find default err:commdlg:PRINTDLG_ChangePrinterW DocumentProperties fails on...

I am trying to print from both a Win98 PC via Samba and a Red Hat 8.0 workstation to an HP 4 Plus printer that is connected to a Red Hat 8.0 server. I have managed to get the Win98 PC working OK, but am having difficulty with the RH8 workstation. I set the printer up using a browser with <Server>:631, calling it HP4Plus, and I can send a test print from the browser on the RH8 box via

I have searched around the samba documentation, including the smb.conf man page, and have found nothing regarding the cups printing system except change printcap to cups. Now, I have done that, but printing still does not work. I need some types of details and a sample smb.conf and/or any other relevant documentation. Thanks much, George D. Plymale

Trying to get one Samba server to serve several printers through CUPS and host a virtual PDF "printer" at the same time. I've gotten them working separately, but not together, and I think I know why. In the smb.conf man page under "print command": "With printing = cups, and if SAMBA is compiled against libcups, any manually set print command will be ignored."

OK, I've tried changing my printcap name from printcap to cups. Printing works fine locally using CUPS on the Samba box. What am I missing here? Why can't I print to the Samba box via the Windows and linux clients? Shared directories work fine. I am really frustrated here and have exhausted Google and all other resources I have. Here's my smb.conf for what it's worth.
