...following command: up2date This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system. After updating the packages, the spool filter will have to be repaired to use the -dPARANOIDSAFER mode, IF and only IF you have modified the spools from what printtool provided. If this is the case, delete the spool queue, and simply re-add it. Custom filters and processes can make use of this mode by setting and exporting the GS_OPTIONS environment variable to contain -dPARANOIDSAFER, or by adding -dPARANOIDSAFER to the command line call to ghostscript. 5.

...ce for printing ps locally without having to open up ghostview. The ASCII one is the one that doesn't eject and goes off line. I think basically what I need is just a send EOF somewhere. I can see how this is done with my local printers, since they use local filters that can be configured in printtool, but I don't know where to do this for a samba printer. There is no such option in printtool when adding or configuring a samba printer. If there is a line I can add to printcap that would be easiest.

I have a printer - an HP 1120c - connected to my wife's Win98 machine. Occasionally I would like to print to that printer instead of the HP Laserjet 4+ connected to my Linux machine. Could someone explain a couple of things for me? 1. I am running Mandrake 6.0. When I start printtool, it complains that it does not believe Samba is installed. Why and how do I fix? 2. I ignore the message and setup the printer anyway. Print jobs appear to spool, but never get there. I've done a couple of quick sniffer traces and I see traffic, but I can't pinpoint the problem. I CAN prin...

Could someone please help me with this..... walk me through it. On a similar topic, when I run the 'printtool' command, printtool tells me that samba is not installed (when obviously it is), can anyone shed any light on this????? Thanks in Advance Artie

printtool This will bring up the util that will do what you want. Click ADD and select Remote Unix (lpd) Queue and click OK. Enter the Queue name and hit TAB - this will automaticall chamge the spool directory name to match what you just entered as a name. Enter the printer's IP for Remote Host and the...

Running recent cvs from head branch, attempting to list shares on a machine running win2k. Can anyone tell what is wrong here. It does have several shares including a printer. I can connect with: smbclient /chub/SHARE -U Adminstrator (and get prompted for password) What does the line `NetShareEnum failed' below, mean (Sorry about verbose output) #

A week or so ago I posted an issue about printing from my Linux/Samba 2.0.5a box to a Win98 print queue that ends up at an HP Deskjet 1120C. I have since managed to enable printing, however only in PostScript mode (I am using the RedHat printtool util to test). PostScript looks pretty darn good, however sending an ascii job to the queue results in the printed line "If this is all you see, try enabling 'LF->CR/LF' translation in printtool." which we have all seen before (right?). Problem is, it is already enabled. It see...

I have managed to setup SAMBA and the printer can print locally from Linux. Printer was setup using printtool I have problem printing from win2k to the printer that is hooked up to the Linux server. 1. I have ensure that the paths to the spool is the same on smb.conf as well as printcap 2.

I cannot print to my Samba-printer from Win NT. Printing works fine under X-windows. What could be wrong? //Michael

Hi, I've been toying with the idea of using the Linux machine as a print server. I'm using RedHat 5.2 and Samba 2.0.3. I already have one remote printer share working... but I can't figure out where the PrintTool in RedHat is storing the remote printers IP address. Anyone know where? :) (not important just bugging me - I hate when OS's hide stuff) I have the Samba book (which is a very excellent guide) but I've noticed it skims lightly on printers. Can someone give some pointers on what met...
