I have an application than makes use of the "lpq command" and uses the %U parameter in the command string. The application returns a personalized queue list based on the value of %U. This technique worked well in older versions of Samba (circa RedHat 8), but I have run into some trouble with Samba 3. The issue appears to be twofold....

Hi, I'm developing a script for "lpq command". It would need a %U option so that the script can know which user asked for the job list. Currently, lpq command seem to only serve %p. Is there any hope to get %U ? I see that my script run as root, so I assume the calling user info is lost ? TIA, Charles -- Charles Bueche <ch...

Hi, I'm having problems with the queue on a Tru64 box running Samba 2.2.4. When the queue is viewed from a client machine it displays a print job with fields equivalent to the first line the lpq command outputs. For example, lpq returns: # lpq -P itsgp_css1 crow.qut.edu.au: Tue May 14 09:23:54 2002: no entries Then if I get on a client machine (Win2k) and look at the queue there is a single job as follows: Document Name Status Owner Pages 11:22:41 May So,...

...m seeing an odd problem with 3.0.10 and 3.0.11 here. We have some pdf printers defined: [Accounting pdf printer] printer admin = "DOMAIN+Domain Users" browseable = yes path = /pdfdropbox/Accounting printable = yes writeable = no print command = /usr/bin/preprintpdf %s -r lpq command = lprm command = The /usr/bin/preprintpdf just passes the job on: #! /bin/sh OUTDIR=/pdfdropbox /usr/bin/printpdf -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 "$1" rm $1 The /usr/bin/printpdf converts the file to a pdf with ghostscript. With 3.0.7 everything worked fine. Jobs could be printed,...

...correct comments. Most printers would recieve the comment - "no entries" which originally I assumed to be the default comment given by Win95 when it could not get a proper comment. However I later found that this is not the case. In fact when looking at the printer queue on the unix side (lpq) I found that the status comment was 'no entries'. The biggest clue to this was when I installed a particular printer it recieved the comment 'out of paper'! So it seems that the comment given to a printer in Win95 is 'sort of' derived from the printer status outputted from...

There has been some correspondence about getting the file names displayed with lpq instead of the smbXXXXX name. The -J option works, but, with some documents, notably Microsoft Word and Corel WP9, the application sends a long preamble, such that the file name is never seen in the queue when listed with lpq. eg: Microsoft Word - PRINT FILE NAME.doc So, to fix this up, at least fo...

...ny application on the NT clients, or bringing up the properties dialog for any printer takes between 10 to 30 seconds or more. A debug run at level 10 shows the client and server doing the authentication chat. I've also just noticed that the server also runs the 'lpq command' for each printer the client has installed whenever I open the "Printers" folder on the client, or whenever I attempt to print/get properties of any one of the printers. I would guess that is adding to the slow response if not being the sole cause of it....

Hello list, i use now Samba 3.0.2 as PDC with LDAP backend on suse sles8. With the other versions of Samba3 I hade the same problems with the lpq command. I use CUPS printing system with raw options.

...e, it is always empty (even if the printer is offline). By turning on the debugging I saw the follwing output in the logfile: Running the command `lpr -r -s -P kyo /var/spool/samba/mobifi.n23036' gave 0 Here, with the print command, everything works. But later we find Running the command `lpq -PIPC$' gave 256 which fails of course since there is no printer IPC$. I have print command = lpr -r -P %p %s and lpq command = lpq -P %p in my configfile but for some reason, the substitution of %p doesn't work in the second case... Even if I leave out the lpq command, the result is...

Here is what I'm seeing after upgrading to 3.0.x: 1) Jobs no longer properly report their status, using LPRng's lpq. I see, instead, no listing for status and a listing for number of pages in the job. While that is also useful information, it does not allow me to act on jobs as I'd like to (resume/pause/etc). 2) Basically EVERY job that has ever printed via Samba on that printer since I've upgraded...

Iv'e tried many things: - using lpq command, etc..., to force a lpq command, and changing or not printing = cups to validate the new lpq command - if i use the smbclient command (linux command) to connect to printer defined onto the server smbclient -U user \\\\server\\printer and use the queue command i see the the...

I am driving a Suse 8.2 linux with cups 1.1.18 and samba 2.2.7a. The problem: The host serves several printers via cups. If some jobs are in one of the queues "lpq -Pprinter" or "lpstat -o printer" shows up the complete listing. Fine. Connected to the same print queue from a Windows (XP/NT/98/2k) box I cannot see the complete listing. Sometimes I see some of the jobs, most of the times I don't see any. Executing "lpq -S printhost -P pr...

...say) appears not only in his own printer window but also in the monitoring window of an ordinary user who only has one job in the queue. Equally, if the ordinary user refreshes his view, he sees just his one job again but now so does the operator. While trying to improve this behaviour I set "lpq cache time" to zero, thinking this would help. (It didn't.) But I made another discovery. With the cacheing disabled each "Refresh" from the Windows end (NT workstation) causes THREE calls to the "lpq command" script ! Finally I tried using a separate lpq command scrip...
