...ll have to be auto-typed as "vnd.cups-postscript". Probably a file produced with a "Generic PostScript driver" will be just "application/postscript" (have not checked). Once the file is in "application/vnd.cups-postscript" format, either "pstoraster" or "cupsomatic" will take over (depending on the printer configuration, as determined by the PPD in use). NOTE: a printer queue with *no* PPD associated to it is a "raw" ----- printer and all files will go directly there as received by the spooler; the exeption...

Hello, I'm new to WINE and cannot get a windows desktop publishing program to print. Wine's notebook prints, so I know WINE can reach my printer (Canon Pixma IP4200). What can I do to get my Quark program to use the same drivers? When I try to print now, nothing happens -- no messages, nothing. Thanks for any help. Frank

...ation. cups seems to go on and off and it works and doesn't work. I think I need some help on my samba configuration. Generally, it has worked well on another machine, but my current setup seems a bit screwy. System: FreeBSD 4.6.2; cups-1.1.15.1; cups-base-1.1.15.1_4; cups-lpr-1.1.15.1_1;cups-pstoraster-7.05.5; ghostscript-gnu-7.05_3 (installed by cups-lpr); gimp-print-4.2.1; samba-2.2.6.p2 Problem: yesterday, I could see the Unix machine on Win2k. I have two printer shares that could be seen. Today, they are not there. To log on to the FBSD machine from Win2k I get the log-on window and can co...

Although I can print locally on a linux machine running samba-3.4.5, cups-1.4.1, hplip-3.9.12 without errors, when any windows machines try to print to a printer connected to the Linux machine, the job prints, but gives the following error: "/usr/local/lib/cups/filter/pstoraster failed" ..and the job remains in the print queue on both the local and remote machines. This error occurs even when printing the same pdf file that prints without errors on the linux machine Is this something to do with smb.conf? It used to work fine on the same setup with samba-3.4.1, cups-...

I've just been trying to get my Samba 3.0.0-2 build to work with CUPS. The rpm I downloaded from the Samba site was not compiled with CUPS library support. Which is why I am assuming that having added printing = cups in my conf file things are not working. If I use the source rpm can I force the build to include CUPS library support ? Or do I have to build from scratch? thanks Alan

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.

Hi all This is my first time writting to samba I'd like to get a quickly help in this: Where can I find a program or how can I configure my samba server in order to limit the number of pages to be printed by users. Best regards

Could somebody please explain just how one is supposed to set up samba users, groups and passwords so connections can be established to Win2k clients to connect to FBSD samba server for file sharing and to use cups for printing. I am afraid that the manuals and config files and various examples I have found on the Internet are quite confusing. How is the Windows username/passord related to
