similar to: Printer drivers on a samba 2.2.8a server: how?

This is the EXACT problem I had. Haven't fixed it either.... if I have 10 printers.... upload all the drivers.. for all the OS's... how do I tell which drivers go with which printer? -----Original Message----- From: Andreas [mailto:andreas@conectiva.com.br] Sent: Thursday, June 26, 2003 9:24 AM To: samba@lists.samba.org Subject: [Samba] 2.2.8a, printer driver download: need to use

Hi all! I have a situtation that I want to get happening: We have just installed a colour photocopier with duplexing at a client's office. We're looking to have four printers pointing at this one device, with the following settings (one for each printer): * Black and White * Black and White, Duplexed * Colour * Colour Duplexed My question is, can we have server-side settings for

[crossposting to Samba, CUPS and Linuxprinting mailing lists...] Hi, I have written a Draft for the new Printing Chapter of the Samba-3.0 HOWTO-Collection. It is available at http://www.linuxprinting.org/kpfeifle/SambaPrintHOWTO/Samba-HOWTO-Collection-3.0-PrintingChapter-3rd-draft.html A PDF version (for convenient printing) is at

I have RTFM'd, so excuse me if I missed something in the manual. :) 1) When I attempt to add additional drivers (the inital driver worked just fine, when using the instructions in John's HOWTO), I get the following error: "The printer driver you selected is either not compatible with your current version of Windows, or it may not be available. Select a compatible driver from the

I am looking for some way to grant or deny internet access (that is, changing iptables rules) based on Samba domain logon. When a user logs on, I would like to run a script that modifies firewall rules based on the group that the user belongs to (this determines if he has internet access or not) and based on the workstation's IP address (so I know which IP address to grant internet access

I've scoured the newsgroups and asked MANY people, does anyone out there have any ideas ? I'm new to the CUPS arena and I'm trying to figure out what to do from the separate docs. I'm using SLES7 (2.4.7 kernel). The files I'm using are: 4368072 May 22 06:22 cups-1.1.19rc5-source.tar.gz 197341 May 22 06:22 cups-samba-1.1.19rc2.tar.gz 4961128 May 22 07:58

Hi there, I'm newbie in Samba, so I beg for your excuse if my questions are stupid. Is it possible to use Samba as a "paid-for-print" server? If U know something about another free "paid-for-print" software, please let me know. 10x in advance, -- Julian

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

I have a Debian laptop and an OS X desktop computer. on the Mac I have set up windows file sharing and I have set up print sharing. I then proceded to install samba and komba2 on my system....all set up and komba2 sees mt workgroup and sees the shared printer...it registers it with CUPS and everything........ however, I tried printing and nothing happened. I checked CUPS on the laptop and it

I have tried to read the documentation, but I was not able to find a clear solution to my problem. I run Samba 3.0.14a on a Debian system with Posix ACLs. I have a share on a file system that uses Posix ACLs, and I have two directories in that share. Both directories have default ACLs set, so that every new file (or directory) created under each directory (by Windows XP/2000 clients)

Hello I'm setting up the automatic printer driver download feature, and it works nicelly except for one little thing: I have to use, on the samba machine, rpcclient's setdriver command to associate a printer with its driver. I didn't see this requirement in the Samba howto, it only mentions setdriver as a way to speed up large installations. Am I missing something? Should windows

Hello samba, I have an issue with OpenVPN 2.0 and Samba 3.0.14a. My setup consists in a routed VPN (thus server and clients are on different subnets) between a linux OpenVPN 2.0 server and some Windows 2000 VPN clients. Samba is the PDC and is a WINS server. The VPN clients work, broswing works, and I see the clients registering on the server's WINS in

Hi, this is my first post to the list. I have googled a lot, and still cannot find a proper solution. I hope someone here will be able to shed some light on my doubts. I have set up a firewall using kernel 2.6.15 (Debian) that does NAT for 100 clients, and uses two different ISPs, using the howto found at http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html. I have *not*

Hi, I'm trying to get Samba to offer the Adobe driver automatically for the two printers I have set up with CUPS. I have all of the necessary files plucked out of the Adobe Postscript Windows driver package, but I'm hitting the problem when I come to run "cupsaddsmb -v ..." that the "rpcclient adddrivers" command always fails with NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL. The drivers

Hi, I'm trying to use Cups + Samba to make a print server for many purpouses. The main one is to account how many pages where printed by whom and centralize all printers in one server. If I configure samba and cups in the RAW mode using windows original drivers of the printers, everything works fine, but this way I can't use cups accounting. So I reinstaled all my printers

Hi, I created a PDFPrinter as per http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=samba&m=105301236523413&w=2 I have another question, do I need to add a Color Laser Printer Driver in W2K to the PDF share to generate color PDF in Windows? Regards, Norman

Hello everyone, I have already asked for this the cups list/newsgroup, but it seems to me that this might be more a question about Samba. According (hopefully) to these howtos I have setup printers and prepared their cups postscript drivers to be installed automatically via Samba and the so called Point'n'Print method: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-456501-highlight-.html

I've not been able to get Samba to print to a Lexmark Z53. If I call it a Z52, the driver uploads (to where, I have no idea so I can't check it) but I still can't get anything out of the printer.

I have a network with an NT as PDC. There are ...5-6 printers on my network shared by the network users. How can I use them? What do I have to put in my configuration file? I read Samba's doc, but I couldn't find anything. -- Stefan, a simple Debian user. Linux registered user: #272012 [Linux is Friendly. It's just selective about who his friends are.]

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
