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

I have FreeBSD 5.3 running on an Sun Ultra 10. I installed Samba 3.03, from patching SWAT now says version 3.07. I am having an issue printing from Windows through Samba to Savin copiers (model 9935DPE and 9945DPE) when downloading the Windows drivers directly from the [print$] share. When I print a test page, the orientation of the lettering is correct but the letters are gibberish. The

I've noticed several users on various mailing lists that have had trouble printing from Windows to a Samba server. I've stumbled onto a fix for my particular situation, and I thought I would post it for the benefit of others. It turns out to be a CUPS/Windows interaction issue and not a Samba problem, but the symptoms tend to point to Samba as the culprit. (I've posted similar

Hi folks: AIX Samba server: 4.3.3 Samba v: 2.2.1a Windows NT sp6a printer: various HP: 4500, 8150 I have set up the print queues the long way, by copying all the .dll's to unix, etc. All the config's look work, in fact I can print, but it print the 'control characters'.

Hello, I've tried both samba-3.0.0beta2 and beta3 but both give me the same problem.

Dear all samba 3.0.2pre1-1 cups 1.1.20 i am testing the CUPS printing on Samba 3.0.2pre1-1 and so far we have a good impression about the system We want to use only Postscript for our printers. The cupsaddsmb tool works great and printing with the cups driver is fine. The Add Printer Wizard for uploading vendor specific for the PCL 5 drivers is working fine and printing is working. I have

Hi, I have a bizarre printing problem, and i think i've narrowed it down to either samba, or the way windows packages the file to be printed. I've recently implemented a new server. Users print through the linux server from their windows desktop machines. OLD server: -samba 2.0.7, which uses lpd NEW server: -samba 2.2.3, which uses cups The old server can print to the printer (Savin

I?ve got a Ricoh multi-function printer/copier that I need to restrict the colour printing functions to only members of the @ColorPrinting group. I?ve two print queues for the Ricoh, one colour, one not. Unfortunately, even users on the B&W queue can change the colour settings on the print dialog in Windows and bypass the restriction and prints in colour. Part of this likely is our CUPS

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

I've asked a similar question before, but this is slightly different - is there a reasonably good, cheap all-in-one scanner-copier-printer-fax device that works well with Linux, CentOS in particular? (Last time I asked about a scanner only, although it was in the context of a Canon MP160, which I never did get to work and wound up taking back.) Thanks. mhr -------------- next part

Hi, I'm running Samba printing services to share a printer on my Linux box with a network of windows machines. Everything works great. The only problem I am having is that I cannot count the number of pages printed by each user. My printers section looks like this: [printers] comment = All Printers browseable = no guest ok = no path = /var/spool/samba printable = yes public

Hi, I'm working on a minimal print server setup for Windows 10/11 x64 clients. No domain, no Kerberos, no LDAP, only a few local users on a standalone server with some shared CUPS printers. Printing works well. After setting 'spoolss: os_major = 6' and 'spoolss: os_minor = 1' The *Kyocera KX Universal Driver* has uploaded well. But, that's all. No success uploading

Hi Guys, I've have an issue (or perhaps more accurately a feature) with my production system running Samba 3.0.24 (Cups 1.2.9). We do not make use of server side print drivers, the reason for this is below. We therefore install drivers manually on our client systems. The issue that has arisen lately is that when a printer is added to a client workstation, Samba somehow picks up the name of

Hi all I tried installing a remote WINXP SMB shared Canon i255 Inkjet printer on the CUPS printer queue, but could not find the model number in the supported printers list. How do I print on this printer? With regards. Sanjay.

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
