similar to: Print filters when sending jobs to windows printer?

Well, I finally managed to setup samba printing... almost. smbprint seems well and good... if you have a postscript printer, which I don't. So, I just see stair-stepping, raw postscript on the win98 box printer I'm sending to. I've configured magicfilter to handle postscript with gs, but I'm having trouble integrating magicfilter with smbprint. I'm not much of an expert on

Hi there, If the printer is connected to a W95 box the following information may help. 1) read the shell script '/usr/local/samba/smbprint', it provides info on how to setup the configuration files 2) install ghostscript, portable bitmap utils etc 3) install 'Magicfilter', it may need all of '2)' 4) modify the (last) lines in 'smbprint' to something like: (

Okay... seems I still cannot get anything working right with this as far getting it to print. Here is the three different files which I would like all to look at and see what I have screwed up since it refuses to print. Here is the setup of the network: HP 5L connected to Win95 - 192.168.0.1 Linux - Zeus - 192.168.0.3 -----------SMB.CONF FILE------------ ; /etc/smb.conf [global] printing =

I have been having a printing problem recently on a setup that has worked for quite some time. Configs below. The symtoms are slightly different on a W2K and a WinME workstation, but the result is the same; no printed output. However, when I print from the local Unix server or from any other Unix server in the network the output is as expected. The W2K machine reports 'Access denied,

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

Morning... Just spent this evening getting printing setup off my FreeBSD machine (oh, how I love Solaris at these times *groan*)...got it now so that I can print directly from Netscape, color and graphics and all. The printer is an HP 560c. Now, I want to be able to print from my Windoze95 machine, and have samba setup for that, as well as file sharing. If I setup my Windoze machine such

Howdy all - I have Samba 2.0.3 running like a champ on a dual PPro 200, 128 MB RAM, running Slackware 3.6, kernel 2.2.5. Running like a champ as far as file sharing is concerned, that is. I have an HP Deskjet 1000c hanging off the parallel port. I set up a raw printer in /etc/printcap, the line looks like this: dj1000|DeskJet 1000c:sh:lp=/dev/lp0:sd=/var/spool/lpd/dj1000 the printing section

I am printing from linux to a printer attached to a win98 computer. I send a text file directly to the printer such as 'lpr -P BJC <file.txt>', the printer prints all the text as it should then fails to eject the last page and then goes off line. When I push the online button, it ejects the page and then is ready again. I am using a Cannon BJC4304. This printer supposedly can

Sorry, I guess I should have been more specific, I am printing from linux to a printer attached to a win98 computer. When I say text I mean when I send a text file directly to the printer such as 'lpr -P BJC <file.txt>'. When I say 'hang' what I mean is that the printer prints all the text as it should then fails to eject the last page and then goes off line. When I push

Hi, I'm running Samba 2.0.4b on a Debian Linux (v2.2) PC. If I look at the "log.smb" file there are many messages: Attempt to locate null printername! Internal error? We have a number of print queues defined and they work fine. Here is a portion of the /etc/printcap: ================================================= # # Copyright (c) 1983 Regents of the University of California.

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 hosted from windows95 workstations

Since everyone seems to only post problems to this list, I thought that I would try and post a number of solutions at once. This is my working samba configuration file (minus key indentyfying information). It may not be perfect, but it is as close as I have been able to get it to perfect, and that is after working with samba for a few years. This configuration has my server setup as a PDC (with

Hi All, Wondering if there is a document that tells how to get wine printing through a cups printer working? Yes I know the wine docs say it's all magic and if you're using cups your printing will magically work, but for some reason, it doesn't, my wine session crashes and burns when I try to print from the built in notepad (or any other apps I've tried: in particular, Lotus

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 the smbprint attached. I did not find this in the lists, so I hope this

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

Hello people, ok just a small problem I have with my samba settings. I have a RH 6.0 file/printer server that is connected to some Windoze 98 machines and a couple of Macs. The linux machine also has one printer on its local port lpt1. Ok...I have set up everything and currently I can print from the Windozes and the Mac to the printer that is localy connected on the Linux server. What I want
