similar to: (Idiot outside) - smbprngenpdf printer driver?

I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to use different driver file downloads for different printers on the system? As of what I can see in all doc-files I can only use ONE set of drivers for all added printers? F.x. I have one printer that is handled by CUPS' PPD system, and one printer that uses RAW. So, the first printer (PPD) should have its feed in postscript format from

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

I have searched around the samba documentation, including the smb.conf man page, and have found nothing regarding the cups printing system except change printcap to cups. Now, I have done that, but printing still does not work. I need some types of details and a sample smb.conf and/or any other relevant documentation. Thanks much, George D. Plymale

Trying to get one Samba server to serve several printers through CUPS and host a virtual PDF "printer" at the same time. I've gotten them working separately, but not together, and I think I know why. In the smb.conf man page under "print command": "With printing = cups, and if SAMBA is compiled against libcups, any manually set print command will be ignored."

Hi all, I've got a nice working pdf samba printer emailing the right person thanks to PeteFwee and David F and am doing a little testing. I've just realized that it's set to Letter when it creates the .pdf file. and i've googled till i'm blue in the face and can't see any options that says page size or something similar. i'm running ghostscript 7.04. does anybody

I am looking for some documentation or instructions for setup and use of smbprngenpdf by Windows clients. Can anyone point me in the proper direction. Thanks.

OK, I've tried changing my printcap name from printcap to cups. Printing works fine locally using CUPS on the Samba box. What am I missing here? Why can't I print to the Samba box via the Windows and linux clients? Shared directories work fine. I am really frustrated here and have exhausted Google and all other resources I have. Here's my smb.conf for what it's worth.

The printing howto is a little vague in this area. How do I go about printing through ghostscript from windows? I know how to teach ghostscript to print the ttfs (generate the appropriate afms, add them to the fontmap). Where do I place the afms for wine to use? If I provide afms for each truetype font for wine, and then use a postscript printer ppd file, and set lpt1 to be |lpr, will this

I have a non-PS printer setup to print under linux using ghostscript as a filter. This printer has two paper trays, one has letter paper, the other tabloid size paper. If I print from a program that uses a PPD file to configure the printer, like StarOffice or The Gimp, I can select the paper size from a nifty list. If I select letter size, the printer print with paper from the letter tray. If

Hi! I'm experimenting with SuSE Linux and Samba 2.2.5 as a PDC, so far, everything works perfectly well, aside from that if I store an .exe file on a network mapped drive (from the Samba server) it can't be run? The workstation is a Windows XP Pro SP1, connecting to the Samba running as a PDC with LDAP backend. The machine and user logon works perfectly, but I can't execute .exe

Is it possible to send a pop-up message to all connected Windows stations in a whole domain via one command, or is it necessary to send one message per command to each station? It must be a command line utility since X isn't running on the server. Anders Norrbring

Hi, I´m allways using the recent versions from cvs (prebuild from dailywine) and I stated that I have to reconfigure my wine printing. Before I used the wineps.drv driver but now wine seams to work with the printers defined in /etc/printcap. But there are some little questions left by me although I got it printing well: 1. How can I make another printer as default printer different from the

Hello there, I have a solaris 8 server running cups 1.1.20 and samba 3.0.1. We've successfully configured a handful of HP Laserjet network printers to work with our windows clients (works like a champ...very happy with winbind and the "point and print" automatic driver installation). However, we can't print from Solaris clients? We have one physical printer and two queues

I can't figure out what's wrong with my config, I can see the share \\beata\anders, but not store0 or store1; # smb.conf is the main Samba configuration file.

Hello all, I am running a Debian testing/unstable system with samba 2.2.3a-6 and cupsys 1.1.15-4 as a member server in a samba domain. I have used CUPS to add a networked HP8100N printer and it works fine locally, but I'm having difficulty adding it to samba for Win98 domain clients to use. I ran cupsaddsmb to add the printer and drivers to samba, but it cannot find the PPD file... where is

Hi Just started playing with wine to run an old Window's 16 bit app (Idealist). The app runs fine, give or take a font issue, but having read the FAQ and docs, I cannot find any info on configuring printers so when I go File->Print it needs to present the printer I want to print to. I noticed some LPT commands and have a default Linux printer (HPLJ2100) setup. So any info on how I can get

Hi! I was thinking, is there a way to use a linux box with Samba running in the DMZ of a firewall and to validate logons from the internal network? I.e. the users workstations are on the protected net on 192.168.111.xx and the Samba PDC resides in the DMZ, running subnet 192.168.222.xx. If it's possible, what ports need to be open?

I simply wonder if I can have several different logon script bat files for MS Win users that validates through my Samba PDC? Let's say that group "users" should have logon batch users.bat and the members of the group "sales" should have both users.bat and sales.bat executed at logon? Or can I in some way use ONE script with parameters that knows about what groups the user

Does anyone know why I am getting an error message about "insufficient memory" when I try to print from wine? I am running Lotus Notes 5.0.6. Thanks Richard
