Hello! I?ve got trouble to print via Samba. But read to the end to understand: My printer (a Canon BJC 620) is connected to a Win98 box. Its network name is canon. The /etc/printcap entry is: ---/etc/printcap--- lp|smb|canon:\ :cm=unser Drucker:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/smb:\ :af=/var/spool/lpd/smb/acct:\ :if=/usr/local/samba/bin/smbprint:\ :mx=0:\

Good Afternoon, We recently added encrypted smb passwords to our site. I just tried to add a printer to samba and it will not work. I tried to connect to \\sambahost\printer and it will not connect. All the older printers still work. I just wonder if there is an extra step I need to perform now when I add printers? Thanks for your time, Bill -- William M. Fennell Network Administrator

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

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.

Hi, Maybe someone can help me. I am running FreeBSD 3.2 with Samba 2.0.4b and NT Server 4.0 with SP3 and I added the BSD machine to its server list. My printer is setup on my NT for print sharing. Well if I connect to the share name of the printer via smbclient ( ./smbclient \\\\ESAU\\EPSON -U login%password) I am able to successfully access it and even print. However, when I use the

Hi all. I would like to print from a Linux Server to a printer connected to a Windows ME machine.

Hello, Samba team! I am very new to Linux and Samba, so probably my problem is that I need to study more Linux basic concepts, but in the meanwhile, I need to get this working: I have to print from a Linux Suse 7.2 box, where I have installed Samba, to a printer connected to an NT box. I have found things written for printing the other way around, but not too much this way. I defined a printer

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 apologize has been discussed, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. I'm trying configure my samba/debian box to allow printing to a shared printer on a win95 machine. Any help is appreciated.

Hi there Looking at the archives I didn't find a solution to the following problem we have here: Printing from our linux-server (wagner) to an intel printserver (PS652D8F) doesn't work.

I am having a bit of a problem getting my Samba printer configuration to work with Windows XP(I am running samba on Linux Redhat 7.3). My other shares seem to work as I can find my files on the my Linux system using XP. I have used redhat 7.3 kde printer configurations to create the appropriate files. The result is when I try to send a print job the printer kicks into to gear but only a blank

I am sharing some printers attached to Win95 boxes, and would like to be able to do more than connect from Linux with smbclient and print via translate. I would like to be able to specify a printcap entry for these so as to be able to print from pine or lynx or Netscape (when I get X running here at work). I haven't found anything in Samba docs or LDP docs yet to tell me how to write such

I have a printer - an HP 1120c - connected to my wife's Win98 machine. Occasionally I would like to print to that printer instead of the HP Laserjet 4+ connected to my Linux machine. Could someone explain a couple of things for me? 1. I am running Mandrake 6.0. When I start printtool, it complains that it does not believe Samba is installed. Why and how do I fix? 2. I ignore the message and

Hi, We have a Win95 printer (HP laserjet 2100). All of my friends (their operating system is Win95) can use this shared printer. But, I have a Linux machine (SuSE 6.1). Samba was installed in my Linux. How can I use this Win95 printer from my Linux? Thank you Sincerely, Mehmet Bayindir

Running recent cvs from head branch, attempting to list shares on a machine running win2k. Can anyone tell what is wrong here. It does have several shares including a printer.

I've just set up lpd to print to a postscript printer attached to an NT server, using the Redhat 5.2 version of the smbprint command. Eventually I'd like this machine to be the department's standard lpr->SMB gateway. It works perfectly, except that since smbclient always logs onto the NT server with the same ID, no matter who prints the job, the same NT-generated banner page gets

Hi, i would like to configure a computer (Linux/SuSE 6.3 i386 connected to a local lan, clients with Win9x) to do the following: whenever an user print a document on a shared printer the document will be printed twice: - once in a printer connected to Linux (through lpr or smbprint?) - once to another shared printer Is this possible? Are there any related documents? Thanks in advance, Mat

I'm trying to print to a shared printer on my Windows 98 SE box from my linux box. I've configured it via Webmin and I can mount my home directory on linux from Windows (using samba) and vice versa... But I can't seem to configure printing properly... I've got a Canon BJC-1000 on my Windows box and Webmin seems to think it SHOULD be printable.... *sigh* I've tried all three
