Hello, i use Serverside printerdrivers, and since 2.2.5 it seems to work well, but on problem remains: I installed a driver for the HP 750 Designjet with cupsaddsmb. This drivers works well, but only up to A2. The Printer Properties don't let me choose larger paper sizes than A2 (I need definitly A1 and A0 ). I tried to create new forms trough server properties, but it does not work. Is

I have heard something about a 'known bug in 2.2.4' so this might already be known. If so, I just want to get confirmation... I have a new samba 2.2.4 running on a RH7.2 box, running solely as printserv. The spoolss printing functionality is working fine: uploading drivers works ok (aside from a few APW quirks if you change drivers). I'm using CUPS as unix printing backend. The

Here is a problem I posted to HP's forum on the DesignJet drivers for the 755cm, but something tells me someone clever here has already hacked around this or a similar printer and might know how to solve my problem: --- When installing drivers on a remote Samba server (ie. Windows NT emulation, and perhaps real NT as well), you are able to install printer drivers for a printer for various

do I not have enough info for someont to take a crack at this? hey folks. got cups set up and working on a freebsd 4.11 box running samba 2.2.10. I can print locally from the freebsd box just fine.. when I try to print from remote windows boxes on the network, I only get blank pages (may be empty banner or form feeds). but I jacked up the logging and the only "error" i see in there

Our server is a SuSE Linux 7.2 with CVS samba 2.2 branche. Version number is 2.2.pre-4. We updated today. We have a problem with the default devmode in Windows 2000 (SP2) clients. We have uploaded the printerdrivers to the share print$. The Samba printeradministrator is able to change the printer capabilities as memory, trays, papersize. etc. Changes are global: when a user logs in, he sees

I am trying to associate a driver that i installed with mkprintpkg and install_printer_drivers.pl with the printer that its supposed to go with. this is a log of what is happening: nendral:~ # rpcclient nendral -U root -W xxxx Enter Password: session setup ok Domain=[xxxx] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.2.4] rpcclient $> enumdrivers [Windows NT x86] Printer Driver Info 1: Driver Name:

Dear list, since days I am trying to install several HP-drivers from a XP client on the samba server (DC) - 3.0.28 on OpenSuse 10.3. Installing the drivers contained in Windows works. Installing drivers from a disk (e.g. for a Designet 4000) does NOT work. It says "Driver for Designjet .... could not be installed. Access denied". It is however creating a directory under W32X86 named

hello list, thanks for the great piece of software :) now to my problem: i setup samba long time ago with Version 3.0.14a-Debian.

We have a HP Design Jet 650C Plotter which is hooked to the net via a jetdirect nic. Now I dont have a clue on how to use this plotter over the net. It doesent show up in the network neighborhood and I cant find anything about jetdirect plotters in the Linux documentation or the inet. The server is running Suse Linux 6.2 and Samba 2.05a. TIA Florian v. Behr

Hello All, I have come across a problem that I am not sure where to begin: We have an HP DesignJet 5000 PS 60 wide format printer that is part of our public printing pool which we share out to the pc world via Samba. I am using Samba 3.0.11 in RHAS Enterprise Linux, Update 3. When I install the printer driver onto the server using the Windows APW, and then install the printer on a fresh

Any problems serving up this plotter with Samba 2.2.4? I am using RH 7.3, the plotter has a jetdirect card. I am not using samba print drivers, just passing it through raw to 192.168.21.50:raw1. Planning to let windows 98 clients use their own drivers. I couldn't get a job to print (from linux or windows). I ran out of time for today, picking up again on Monday. Any gotcha's I need to

Jerry, Perhaps you could help me with a problem building a Samba print package. I've downloaded the drivers files I need from HP. I run the appropriate mkprintpkg.pl command, but it dies with the following output: [root@tux designjet]# /usr/local/imprints/bin/mkprintpkg.pl --name="hp1050c" --version=1.00 --display-name="HP DesignJet 1050c" -d "HP DesignJet 1050C

Hi! I'm having problems with printing with Samba 2.2.5 and WinXP. I have samba setup as a PDC and have 3 printers: HP LaserJet 5000N, HP LaserJet 8550DN and HP DesignJet 1055CM. I used WinXP to upload the drivers for the printers to XP clients and to 98 clients, and all went fine. I downloaded the lastest PCL6 drivers for the Laserjet printers and the HPGL2/RTL driver for the Designjet. I

Hi there. I've been some days dealing with printing problems in Win2k clients, having a Samba 2.2.5 parched with "parse_sec.patch" as a printer server. When I try to print anything, explorer.exe dies. Sometimes dies spoolsv.exe, or sometimes all the system locks (it may be because explorer do not restart). It happens to all my Win2k clients with Service Pack 2, and only when using

Hello. I use Linux 2.0.30(Red Hat) and Samba 1.9.16p. Clients are Win95, NT Workstations and Servers. I use Linux like printserver and bridge. And I have problem with my printer HP LaserJet 4MV with JetDirect card. It print 1 test page( or another 1 page) and print after it second page: User: root Host: LINUX Class: LINUX

Yeah, about that... Back in '12, we got a nice HP poster printer. They don't support Linux, but a co-worker got the .ppd out of the Mac support file. I tried it, then I looked at the file in vi... and found it *only* supported the 24" printer, *not* the 44" printer that we had. Well, we just bought a replacement, since the old printer was EOL'd. This time, I went to hplips,

I am trying to set up a jetdirect plotter in our network (samba server running un suse linux 6.2). When I start printing from on of the windows boxes everything seems fine but the printing files only show up in the spooling directories on the samba server. The plotter (HP Designjet 650 C) never receives anything. Here are the relevant parts of my smb.conf and my printcap file: PRINTCAP:

Well, today, I feel like a real, old time sysadmin. Now, I didn't have to write a driver in assembly for the printer, but.... We got this huge, 44" HP Designjet z3200ps printer. Only supports Win and Mac. Fine, I hang it off of one of our servers on a subnet (at $0.96/foot paper, we're the only ones who print on it....). Then I'm thinking that all I really need is a .ppd. My
