I seem to have some issues coming to terms with the new smbprint configuration. Not that it is all that new, but I have worked on a ton of AIX Samba systems that are runing 1.9.x and the smbprint worked great in all aspects. The box's couldn't be upgraded (or so said the company that did application builds related to Samba). The printers were and are h...

Dear Samba Team, the smbprint script as provided with Suse7.2 for Samba Version 2.2.0 did not work. The problem was that the file to be printed was not transfered via stdin after the print - command. I changed the smbprint script to pass the commands via the -c option. My changes and comments are marked with MR27092001MR in th...

...with SP3 and I added the BSD machine to its server list. My printer is setup on my NT for print sharing. Well if I connect to the share name of the printer via smbclient ( ./smbclient \\\\ESAU\\EPSON -U login%password) I am able to successfully access it and even print. However, when I use the smbprint I alway get a file not found error.

Previously I have a working print server using samba with below setting: [global] printcap name = cups printing = cups security = share [printers] browseable = yes printable = yes public = yes create mode = 0700 guest only = yes use client driver = yes guest account = smbprint path = /home/smbprint I could print both from linux and windows XP. But recently (Samba 3.0.22), it stopped working, both linux and windows XP. The message in the linux client computer is: Ready: /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip failed When I set the log to debug level, I could see the actu...

While trying to configure my *nix box to print to windows, I discovered my samba build does not have the smbprint utility. I saw no option in the configure/make script to build with the smprint utility. Is there an option that will build this tool? Thanks!

...Thanks for reading this. Hope you will help me. I am using samba 1.9.17p2 on SunSparc-20 running solaris2.5.1 for printing and file sharing with PC-network. File sharing is working fine but I want to print to a WfWg printer from Solaris. So I have used your script smbprint.sysv and try to print. But I am facing following problems: 1- Some print jobs are printed and some are not. 2- I can only do command line printing e.g lp <file name> 3- I can't print from Xwindows and following message appears on screen: " NO print fi...

Hello there, I've produced a modified version of the smbprint script that comes with the samba source. The script is aimed to retry sending the print job if the windows machine is switched off at the time of printing (samba seems to just drop the print job after a period of time if the machine is off). This script will mail you to tell you the machine is...

HI all, Question: I have a freeBSD box using smbprint to print on a HP jet direct printer attatched to a NT server. However the formatting is horrible and it only prints out about the first 2 lines of a file. Any suggesstions out there? thanks! -aaz

I work in a lab were the only "printer" we have is an HP 3100 (printer/fax/scanner) item. This printer is hung off a Windows98 box and I want to be able to print to it from my linux box using smbprint. I can connect to the share that represents this printer: smbclient \\\\server\\printer "" -N and I get the SMB> prompt which (I think) is pretty useless for printers. using smbprint to try to print to this thing doesn't seem to work. (my log file has lots of this: smb: \...

Hi, Does anyone happen to know a good document about SMBPRINT.SYSV ? I am trying to make my SGi IRIX 6.2 print to a PC Printer via SMB, unsucessfully. I followed the smbprint and lp (sysv) docs in Samba 2.0.7 but, I guess, something is missing, I can not print to that remote printer. I think I do not need a printcap file since it is using lp. But nothing happ...

Hello. I have been trying to print to a windows printer share with no success. So far I have found out that the smbprint does not execute. I verified this by looking at the logfile=/tmp/smb-print.log (from smbprint script) after printing from windows - this logfile was not created. Also, i verified the path of smbclient and it points to the proper directory. I am using Debian , and samba 2.0.7. my printcap entr...

Hi all! At my university, we use for compatibility reasons a windows shared printer running samba server. The main thing is that I can't get smbprint to send pages to the printer.

Hi all. I would like to print from a Linux Server to a printer connected to a Windows ME machine. I'm able to connect via smbclient, with smbclient //windowsme/printer -U '' -N and I receive the smb> prompt Now, when I try to print any file, nothing comes out from the printer. The printer is a Canon LBP-810 which, according to www.linuxprinting.org site, is a WinPrinter. My

My server is running Centos 4. The printer is attached to a Win XP machine. Print service is CUPS. Samba version is 3.0.10. I can use smbclient to connect to the printer and successfully print. I have set the printer up with exactly the same settings as I am using with smbclient. When I use lpr to print nothing prints and when I do an lpstat I get the message: Connection failed with error
