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

Good afternoon, This is my first post, so please be gentle ;) Anyway, here's my question....I've recently put together a Linux Server for our company, replacing an old Novel server. I have the box set up with Samba, as a PDC on our network. So far, just about everything is working correctly. One issue I'm coming up against, though, is printing from DOS. I have Samba

Hi, I have a RedHat7.3 distro running Samba-2.2.3a. I've never had this problem before 2.2.x versions of samba. I'm using domain security and sharing 2 printers, an HP4050 and Ricoh. Everyone can print fine except that, seemingly randomly, printjobs end up in the queue as paused (according to winXPpro and Win98). Nobody can unpause or delete them. The only way to remove them is to

Hi there Brian! I've seen your email on one of the samba mailing list. This has been my problem for a long time. I just want to share this problem directly to you and i hope you can lend me your help. I'm trying to setup windows printer sharing using SAMBA installed on my Linux box (Redhat 7.3 as printer server) and windows 2000 pro as my client. My win2k clients are connected to a

I don't have a solution, but I do want to keep this thread alive until we get it resolved. I'm in the same situation. I can print fine, but it says that annoying message. Do you guys print to an LPD unix queue? My linux print server is sending the job to a LPD linux box that is connected to the printer local. (Our printer support requires it that way). Has anyone been able to

Hi All, After connecting a HP DeskJet 950C printer to my NT Server and configuring it as a share printer, I used samba and printconf to connect to it. I setup the printer in printconf as a Samba (SMB) Printer/Windows Printer (SMB) Share After restarting the lpd daemon, I can print successfully the ASCII test page and other linux files, e.g. smb.conf, /etc/fstab, etc. My problem is that I am unable

I just joined this list, If this has been answered before I apologize: I have a Redhat 7.2 box running Samba 2.2.4 I have a few printers running on JetDirect boxes that I am attempting to print to.

I'm looking for a little help with Samba and LPRng, however, the LPRng portion of it isn't really all that important -- I believe this is mainly a Samba issue. The problem here is that we have 4 campus servers. Each one hosts a Samba domain. Sometimes, users for whatever reason will go to a different campus (where they may or may not have an account -- the problem occurs when they do

Hi, I successfully setup printing on my FreeBSD box using Samba with apsfilter and lprng. However, I have encountered two issues: 1) Cannot print multiple copies of documents from my windows box (e.g. notepad).

Does anyone know of a command line tool for printer configuration for CentOS 5. I have used "printconf-tui --Xexport > printers.xml" to copy my printer setup in CentOS 4.x (then Ximport to bring it back), but this no longer works in CentOS 5 and I would really like to retain this functionality. Can I re-install this tool or will it not work with the new CUPS? Is there an
