I am currently using samba to try and replace a windows NT box as the default print server. All is working well except for one printer driver. All drivers were installed from a win2k machine onto the samba print$ share. The problem that I'm having is with a driver for the HP laser jet 4000N printer. The PCL driver works and loads quickly. The PCL 6 driver works, but the properties

Everyone, I am currently using a vsifax program (pcltotiff) to convert pcl files to tiff files on a SCO Unix box, and then I am using tiff2pdf on a Centos 5.9 box to convert the file to a pdf. There are other commands that deal with multiple page tiff's and pdf's that are part of the process, but the above basic process has worked very well. The only thing I would like to enhance is a

This is my way of filtering ^D and PCL headers out of samba jobs on a solaris 7 system. It assumes that all your printers are capable of postscript, and that you are using PS drivers on any printers are not PCL capable. 1) Add a declaration of pcl capability to the relevant printers: lpadmin -p hp8000 -I 'simple,postscript,pcl' Choose which printers you do this to carefully, Using

Hi, we have a strange problem with the Sharp PCL printer driver for the AR-M450. Someone in the list seems to have the very same problem with a Sharp AR-286 printer. This is what he wrote: # From: Bob Boehmer <bob.boehmer <at> verizon.net> # Subject: Problem with Sharp AR-286 PCL Printer # Newsgroups: gmane.network.samba.general # Date: 2003-02-21 14:17:40 GMT (2 years, 11 weeks, 8

I am having a problem getting the PCL driver for the Sharp AR-286 working. This is an LPD network printer. I created a queue on our Redhat Samba server using the raw driver. The windows drivers uploaded to the Samba server without a problem. But whenever I try to print anything to the printer it comes out garbled. I installed the postscript drivers for the same printer without any problem and

I've also posted this message to the lprng list, but as I'm currently not sure where the problem lies, I'm posting it here too in the hope that someone has a clue..... I have recently installed a printer accounting system on my systems, and changed the print model for some of my users. In most cases, this has been fine, but users who are using HP Laserjet 4 printers are experiencing

Dear all samba 3.0.2pre1-1 cups 1.1.20 i am testing the CUPS printing on Samba 3.0.2pre1-1 and so far we have a good impression about the system We want to use only Postscript for our printers. The cupsaddsmb tool works great and printing with the cups driver is fine. The Add Printer Wizard for uploading vendor specific for the PCL 5 drivers is working fine and printing is working. I have

Hi folks: AIX Samba server: 4.3.3 Samba v: 2.2.1a Windows NT sp6a printer: various HP: 4500, 8150 I have set up the print queues the long way, by copying all the .dll's to unix, etc. All the config's look work, in fact I can print, but it print the 'control characters'. I actually see the: '@PJL .......' which I believe is the PCL control code. I could really use some

Everyone, I am trying to create a 'color' *.pcl from a pdf file with the use of gimp and the gutenprint gimp plugin. I have done this easily to create a black & white *.pcl file, but have not found a way to create a file that contains the 'color' commands for an HP laser printer. I am running Centos 7.5 with all of the latest updates. gutenprint- 5.2.9-18.el7.x86_64 is the

Hi, I have some trouble getting files printed on my Solaris 8 machine running Samba 2.0.5. The client is a winxp installed laptop, the printer is configured as a postscript printer (Minolta PagePro 12 PS), although it is a PCL printer (Minolta PagePro 6).

I have FreeBSD 5.3 running on an Sun Ultra 10. I installed Samba 3.03, from patching SWAT now says version 3.07. I am having an issue printing from Windows through Samba to Savin copiers (model 9935DPE and 9945DPE) when downloading the Windows drivers directly from the [print$] share. When I print a test page, the orientation of the lettering is correct but the letters are gibberish. The

Everyone, I am looking for a utility that I can use to do a mail merge of data to a pdf image file. The image file does not have any active fields, but will be just an image file. I would like to overlay names addresses etc. We currently do this with a pcl file by just overlaying the data with pcl print positions. However, in order to get the pcl file from an original pdf file we have to

I cranked the debug level to 10. Below is a transcript from the client log file of a client trying to open a Properties dialog for the HP 4500 printer. I am puzzled as to why Samba would be looking for a user with the name of a printer. Is this normal behavior? Anyway, about a minute after the last log entry below, the client showed a dialog "Printer properties cannot be

Hello, I am trying to install automatic printer driver download and install. I am running Samba 3, as a PDC, on RedHat 7.3. It seems everything is setup correctly, although I cannot get the rpcclient to 'see' my printer. Please notice these two printers listed below ar the same (lp & HP2300).

Hi everyone, Suppose I have a 3D array of datasets, where say dimension 1 corresponds to cases, dimension 2 to datasets, and dimension 3 to observations within a dataset. As an example, suppose I do the following: > x <- sample(1:20, 48, replace=TRUE) > datasets <- array(x, dim=c(4,3,2)) Here, for each j=1,2,3, I'd like to think of datasets[,j,] as a single data matrix with

Hi I'm running Samba 2.2.8a on a UnixWare 7.1.3 box. I'd set up the Samba printer shares, and it seemed to be working fine (only live for a couple of weeks). However, I've just added some heavy users, and the printer daemon keeps bombing out. I'd configured the printers to use lpr, but someone suggested I should use lp, so I thought I'd give this a go at the weekend.

Hi, I'm running Samba printing services to share a printer on my Linux box with a network of windows machines. Everything works great. The only problem I am having is that I cannot count the number of pages printed by each user. My printers section looks like this: [printers] comment = All Printers browseable = no guest ok = no path = /var/spool/samba printable = yes public

I've noticed several users on various mailing lists that have had trouble printing from Windows to a Samba server. I've stumbled onto a fix for my particular situation, and I thought I would post it for the benefit of others. It turns out to be a CUPS/Windows interaction issue and not a Samba problem, but the symptoms tend to point to Samba as the culprit. (I've posted similar
