Since my old Epson C86 has finally managed to clog up the print heads, I'm in the market for a replacement. I'd like to know what the people on this list are using for printers that are currently available, since we are using versions of CUPS and foomatic that are frozen, and any other issues or "gotchas" that you are aware of. For the replacement printer, I'm considering a

I have an Epson Stylus Color 880, connected to our network via an external ethernet printserver. I used to run lprng on the samba server (which is a domain controller), and the Windows clients had one minor problem accessing this printer via Samba (2.2.3a, then): Every time a client wanted to print, the Epson status monitor on the client would complain about communication problems with the

Anyone dealt with an Epson Stylus Photo 2200? Disconnected from my machine, it won't even print a self-test page.... mark

We're trying to share an Epson USB inkjet printer via Samba 3.0.2-7 on our new Fedora server. The share is set up OK, and can be seen and opened from Windows clients. However, although the Fedora box can print to the Epson, the Windows boxes can't. All other Samba shares, including a laser printer connected to the parallel port, work fine. Does anyone have a clue how to fix this?

I have a application that writes to the LPT1 directly, in wine there is a lot of missing characters in the printout, in the console printing to /dev/lp0 works ok. I'm using puppy linux. Any help welcome. Thank you

Sending my son back to college with a dual-boot laptop with Win 7 and CentOS 5.5. He uses Win7 to manage his iPod and SW that sometimes issued by a professor for a specific course...otherwise he uses CentOS for everything else. That setup worked well last year, except for printing. He has a low-end Cannon printer that is not supported in the Linux realm. Most of his coursework was uploaded to

Hi All, Does anyone have printing problem with an EPSON C80 connected to a Win98 OSR2 with USB cable ? I'm trying to "lpr'ing" a text file from a Linuxbox RH7.2 to the above printer without success. The print seem sent ok, because the green led flash something, but doesn't print. Any suggestion ? Thanks in advance. Roberto Fichera.

I am at my wits end. I have a brother hl1440 laser which I have working with Linux under cups, but I cannot get it working with samba and seen by a Windows XP system. I already have disk shares working properly. The printers name under cups is 1440. I want it's Windows printing to be done by the Windows driver. All the docs I have found online all seem to assume you already are a

I'm running Samba-2.2.3a plus the printer defaults patch (samba-2.2.3a-5mdk rpm) on a Linux 2.4.(Mandrake 8.X). This server has been upgraded from 2.2.3, from 2.2.2, which was upgraded from 2.2.1. Everything was working with the same printer configuration at version 2.2.2 and 2.2.1 (although I have moved the WINS server from a new machine since then). The server is a PDC/WINS server, and

I am trying to allow printing from my linux box to my win98 box, to which my epson stylus printer is attached. It's just not happening...something tells me I'm flirting with a world of pain. I *can* print a file by going: smbclient //rory/EPSON translate print /etc/group but I cannot print from applications, nor can i use smbprint. I tried going: cat /etc/passwd | sh -x smbprint

Hello Family, (smb.conf file attached) Well I was here messing with the smb.conf file and don't ask me why or how but here it is and it prints to the Epson777 Stylus color inkjet with a "Edimax Mini Print Server" attached to the back with a static IP from Windows2000. The only slight quirk is that the "Epson Status Monitor" pops up looking for the printer trying to

I'm running samba 2.2.3a-6 under Debian (testing) and I am having a heck of a time getting Windows 2000 to print to my printer. I keep getting that "Access denied, unable to connect" message. At one point I had it so you could print test pages, but as soon as you tried to print from an application, it would break. However, that doesn't even work anymore. I've been reading

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, I've been searching teh web but I don't find a clear solution for this: The program I am running needs to print a bill to a remote printer (attached to a IBM NC 2200) compatible with EPSON TM-U210D.

Well, here's the tale: we got a "replacement kit" for some APC SmartUPS 3000 - rackmount UPSs. The "kit", costing about half of what APC is asking, is just the batteries, and you pull the tray out, open it up, and swap out the batteries. Except, I did this on one... and the replace battery light never went out. Not using apcupsd's apctest, not pushing the button. The
