Hi I am currently using Samba 3.0.11 and Cups 1.1.23 with Windows PostScript drivers and manufacturer PPDs on WinXP clients. When I print multiples copies of a document from a Windows XP box, the number of copies appearing in the Cups "page_log" file always takes the "1" value but the printer prints the correct number of copies. When I do the same on Linux (with the lpr command), the number of copies appearing in the log is correct. When I take a look in the "error_log" file, I see the following line : StartJ...

...ich i also want to use as printserver using cups. I have configured a samsung printer using cups and am also sharing it via samba by having the printer share in smb.conf file. Now the problem is that when i configure this printer on the windows machine and then send job to this server machine the page_log file is not being updated. Hence i m losing on the printer accounting which is my main aim. I have googled on this problem and found out the the windows is sending a raw printout to this server machine and hence the page_log file is not being updated. But i was unable to find any help as to how to...

...all right so far. Here is what I did. Compiled the new version and installed it. Stopped smbd and nmbd and copied everything under /old-samba/var/ to /new-samba/var/ "smb.conf" stayed the same. Fired up the new version. The printing system ist cups-1.2.11 Before the upgrade the cups page_log alwas showed entries in the form: PrinterA userX 879018 [28/Jun/2007:09:37:38 +0200] 1 1 - 10.230.10.175 PrinterB userY 879019 [28/Jun/2007:09:37:40 +0200] 1 1 - 10.230.10.205 PrinterC userZ 879020 [28/Jun/2007:09:44:18 +0200] 1 1 - 10.230.1.7 Now the page_log looks like this: PrinterA userX 879...

Hi all... I need some docs about how to intergrate cups with samba... I have install samba 3.2.5 and cups 1.3.8 on Debian Lenny system. I have install a printer ( Ricoh Aficio 3245C PS ) and have work fine... But when I follow the job on /var/log/cups/page_log, I always see that number of copies is 1, doesn't matter if the jobs has 5 or 10 pages... It's always show 1 on page_log... I need to know why this happen and if this is a samba or cups problem... Somebody can help me? Thanks -- Gilberto Nunes Ferreira *Suporte T.I.* *Selbetti Gest?o de...

The Adobe drivers (on request of the printer PPD associated with them) often put a PJL header in front of the main PostScript part of the print file. Thus, the printfile starts with <1B >%-12345X or <escape>%-12345X instead of %!PS). This leads to the CUPS daemon auto-typing the incoming file as a print-ready file, not initiating a pass through the pstops filter (to speak more

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Im currently running some tests for a samba/CUPS based print server. The print server is a member of an NT domain and uses winbind to import NT domain users.

...prompt from the server box itself. However, when anything is sent from windows, it never prints. There's no record of it ever reaching the que. I'm not sure where to look for info. it's acting like the windows machine are not sending the print files to the Cups que. It never hits the page_log as a job. When I look at the properties of the printer, the samba printer port is not checked. When I check it and hit apply, it tells "Printer settings could not be saved. Access denied" My network username is part of the root group, and I've set the printer admin and domain admin...

Hello, we have a Samba 4 AD with cups as printing server. Windows clients can download driver via samba and nearly all is fine.

Best Regards,

...d to account page printing correctly. But, I have not been able to get quotas to work based to page-count (job-page-limit), although it works with job-k-limit option. I read that CUPS does not count pages correctly if printing in "raw" format and hence logs "1" for every job in page_log. Till few days back, I had pages being logged in /var/log/cups/page_log, but now it doesn't seem to log anything in there. Can anyone suggest anything? Shanti

...ith cups 1.1.20 to serve printing to XP clients. samba and cups originally sat on the same debian machine. Due to load issues, we've moved cups to a separate debian machine and added the 'cups server =' directive to smb.conf. After this, the XP client IP is no longer listed in cups page_log, the samba server IP is listed instead. We need this information for print accounting. Any ideas? regards, Ryan

Hi All, I've got a very nicely working samba server with cups as the backend. i also have a colour printer on which I must do billing every month. i've done a test page or two and the username comes though to the colour printer which is good. problem i had is the jobname in the logs is smbprn_xxxxxxxx_xx (numbers) which is the samba job name. if joe bloggs complains and says he

...t; commands in front of the real PostScript (starting with a "%!PS" sequence. This means: the file will *always* be auto-typed as MIME type "application/postscript" and will go through the "pstops" filter, thusly putting the right accounting figures into the CUPS "page_log" file. Previously the "JCL" commands from some drivers made the file look like an "application/cups.vnd-postscript" MIME type (as it is output by "pstops") and therefor created only the dummy entry of "1" page into the page_log. Other than that, I can...

No error messages appear on the Windows machines, but nothing ever happens. None of the log files (/var/log/samba/log.smbd, /var/log/cups/page_log, /var/log/cups/error_log) show anything related to the job. It's like the job disappears. But at the same time, all my other printers (the previously configured ones) work just fine from Windows.
