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

I'm having a couple of problems getting samba to process /etc/printcap properly. The printer definition lines of my /etc/printcap are: epson|lp|uniprint-letter-auto-mono|Epson Stylus Color 800 (mono, 360x360):\ color|epson_color|lp1|uniprint-letter-auto-mono|Epson Stylus Color 800 (color, 360x360):\ med|epson_med|lp2|uniprint_stc800p-letter-auto-mono|Epson Stylus Color 800 (mono, 720x720):\

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

I can't seem to find an answer or a workaround, and I've received stoney silence on this one. There aren't any answers in the archives (well, I didn't find any in the hours on several days I spent, anyhow). I'm convinced that I can't be the *only* one with this problem, nor am I convinced that there is absolutely no one who can help. Please feel free to jump in with

Hello Folks, I will personally send $50(AU) of Pizza to anyone that solves this one :) We have a network comprising approx 30 Windows workstations all logging in to a samba machine running as a PDC. The main exported file system is an NFS mounted file system, but this was happening back when this was an xfs file system as well. ACL's are enabled. We are running Samba Version 2.2.8a. The

Hello, I couldn't find an answer to this small question in google/man/faq: why do I use lose my printer if I use registry backend? config backend = file (full config file below): ...

I am really quite puzzled as to why I have to edit smb.conf every time I want to print to the FreeBSD machine from Win2K. (Running FBSD 4.7, samba 2.2.7 and cups 1.1.15.1_4. When I log onto FBSD with username, password, I see the folders for the printers, home, tmp, etc. but no printer. (Only 1 installed - Epson Stylus Color 900). I can access the shares on FBSD from Win2k, but there is no

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

I have menaged to setup Samba services to share an IBM 4039 printer and have tested another printer (Epson LX-800) on the PC. It works fine. The weird thing, the IBM4039 will not print anything. All the jpbs will be spooled. For each print job to be printed. I will need to switch off the printer and switch it on again. Have anyone encountered such problems before? I know there is basically

Good evening: I am running RedHat Linux 8.0 on a box that has my Epson Stylus Color 777 printer attached to it. The printer works fine from all applications on my Linux box using a driver I picked up from TurboPrint. I have downloaded and installed Samba 2.7.2 and am trying to print from a Windows 2000 box to this Linux machine. The problem is that when I print, the document seems to queue up

Hi How can I force Samba 2.2.0 to act as LanMan Printer Server, because otherwise my Epson Stylus Photo 870 won't work. With the normal 2.2.0 the printer prints only s**t. thx Gernot

I'm trying to get my Epson Stylus Color 600 to work with a windows app using wine. My distr (SuSE 9.2) uses CUPS and works fine, but i can't get it to work in wine.

Hello fellows, I have this kind of configuration: one PC acting as samba server (PDC) with RH7.3 and three workstations with win2k. Today I've installed an Epson Stylus C62 printer on one of the Win2k machines (shared by the name of epsonlpt, and now I want to know if it is possible to use this printer from the RH Server? If yes, can you tell me how? Thanks in advance, Rapazito PT A

I have a SAMBA print share set up for an EPSON Stylus Colour 800 Printer. It works OK, but when printing from Windows clients it will only ever print one copy of a document despite selecting multiple copies. My Print command is : print command = /usr/bin/lpr -r -s -P%p %s How can I fix this. Thanks, Dave

Hi, I've installed Samba 2.2.7a on a Red Hat 9 machine. This machine is also running VMware with Windows XP as the guest OS. The XP virtual machine can access the Linux host's shared directories, but not the printer. The printer is an Epson Stylus Color 860. It works fine in the Linux host. In the XP guest, I can see the printer in the add printer configuration wizard. But when
