Before anyone responds I would like to let everyone know my problem is fixed :) The problem was lpr would only spool so big of a file, so I had to add a -s option to it.

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 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 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

Greetings, I'm not on the list, so please CC me, thanks. :) Problem: printing a full-page graphic stops 3 inches into the print.

well i've tried everything trying to get r/w access to my linux box (debian 2.2.3 running samba 2.0.7) from win2k. can only get readonly. i'm hoping some kind sould might be able to take a look at my samba config and let me know what i'm doing wrong... # Samba config file created using SWAT # from localhost (127.0.0.1) # Date: 2001/11/01 00:39:30 # Global parameters [global]

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

For some reason, I cannot get samba (or Win98, depending on how you look at it...) to allow a win98 client to print. I search the list archives, but I didn't find anything similar. So here goes. Symptoms: - Win98 client can access fileshares OK. The printers show up OK as well in network neighbourhood. - On Linux, printing (lprng) works OK. - In win98, e.g. dir >

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, 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): ...

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'm hoping my desperate post yesterday just didn't make it across. Does anyone have any suggestions? Or just want to say "Hi"? Using... CUPS 1.1.13 Samba 2.2.1a Gimp-Print 4.2.0 on a RH 7.2 computer with a USB Epson Stylus Photo 420 printer hooked up to a Windows98 computer... I am unable to print properly... The output seems to be dying on its way to the Windows 98

Hello: I have a printer set-up and working correctly on my Linux machine running Fedora Core 1. It is set up as a local printer called printer. I set it up thru the graphical printer configuration utility. I am trying to set it up as a network printer from my Windows XP machine using Samba. Here are the lines in my smb.conf file: [global] encrypt passwords = yes socket options

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

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

Hi all, I have a small network set up, on which I have 3 Linux-Mandrake Boxes and one Windows98 Machine. On each of the Linux boxes I have installed Samba 2.0.7, and everything so far has been a breeze and is working fine...... with one exception..... On the win98 machine, I have an Epson Stylus printer which I am trying to print to from the Linux boxes...... can I get it to work......

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
