similar to: Samba printing problems with HP 5M Color

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

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

Hi all, I've just install samba2.0.7 on server Tru64. We have one printer HP5Si and others HP4 on the network. Using Samba from our Win95 customer we can print correctly to HP4 but to our HP5si we have the file wanted and one blank page and one page indicated "@PJL RDYMSG DISPLAY=" " ". So we want to suppress these pages. Is there anyone who can help me ?

Points, axes and axes labels on graphs printed from R are very light- almost unreadable. I am using the gui interface on the windows version to print the plot on the screen to an HP 8000 set as a postscript printer or PCL printer; the postscript output is light and the PCL output is very light. If I specify lwd =2 in the plot command, the lines are readable, but the points (open circles, in

I set up a print/fax server here using RH Linux 6.0, and Samba 2.0.3. The printer is an old (but still very reliable) HP Laserjet 4. Printing from the Linux box using lpr works fine. However, whenever someone tries to print from a Windows98 box through SAMBA, there is an extra page printed on the end. This gets really annoying to the users, more so because the extra pages cannot be put back into

Ok, here's my setup: I've had a samba file server going for about a year now. It's Samba v2.05a on a RH6.0 sys. Currently we have a printer server running on a Winblows NT box. This NT box has the following printers: HP5si, (4) HP4000, and a few HP4s. All of those printers have Jet Direct ports on them. What I want to do is, move all the printers over to the Samba box and KILL the NT

We're using a couple of HP printers (2200, 4200, 3390) using the HP PCL 6 printer driver. Printer drivers are installed on the samba (3.0.24) box, connecting, driver installation and printing work OK. Problem: using the same driver version with the printer shared by a windows box gives some additional options like - brochure printing - putting serveral pages on one sheet Any Idea why

Hi; I've reciently upgraded 3 print servers on Solaris 8 from Samba 2.0.9 to 2.2.8a and am running in to difficulties related to clients being able to configure printer drivers. I do not use the [print$] for serving up drivers to install from the print server. I provide access to drivers from a common share from the Microsoft Domain the print servers participate in. I'm still using the

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

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

Hi, Everyone! I've installed samba + print$ driver + cups successfully on my Debian Box, and I've made a simple page count program for the printed PCL and postscript files, it runs nicesly, but one problem I encountered is that I can't check the "Advanced " option on for the samba printer (I've tried to check them, but it does not take effect), while I can do it well

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 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

Hi, I've set up a printer called "UREW-EDV" using the cups webinterface.

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

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.

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

Hello, I am trying to install automatic printer driver download and install. I am running Samba 3, as a PDC, on RedHat 7.3.
