I've recently attempted to convert from the Adobe PostScript drivers for my Canon BJC=2110 printer over to the native CUPS Windows PS drivers and can't quite get things to work correctly. After deleting the printer on my WinXP SP1 clients, verifying under "Server Properties" that the Adobe driver was removed, then reconnecting to my Samba printer, I connect fine but receive

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

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.

I know that printing on Linux is somewhat of an art form, but I have a fairly simple problem. I used the following command to configure a networked printer (HP LaserJet 8150): lpadmin -p name -E -v socket://name -m laserjet.ppd -u allow:all - u deny:none This added and enabled the printer, and I can print to it using the print command from within a GUI application and PostScript

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."

Hello wine people, this is my first posting here. I am using the gimp printing ppd,cups and lpr on a hpdj842c. Wine release 20011226. On Debian woody with 2.4.17. Everything rocks so far except whenever i try to print wine freaks out and dies. Crossover is using Wine release 20010629. I have tried printing in linux and it works fine. I also have crossover installed (I actually paid for it).

Hello, I have a pb in using samba with cups. I put "printing=cups" in my smb.conf file but I cannot connect the printers from Windows NT 4.0. Could you send me a smb.conf file using cups as an example ? Thank you

I'm trying to change my Samba setup from LPD to CUPS, with little success. I've followed [and re-followed] the setup documentation from CUPS and I just can't get Samba to recognize my printer. The catch is - it sort of recognizes it :-( First I added these lines to my smb.conf: ========================================= [global] load printers = yes printing = cups printcap name =

Hello List, sorry, that I have to repost my question a third time (last postings on June 23.), but unfortunately my problem remains unsolved. Here we go again: In short: I can print from any application except wine. My systems (first try): Workstation ray (192.168.99.10): Gentoo 2006.0 wine-0.9.15 Cups-1.1.23 no /etc/printcap no local printer connected /etc/cups/client.conf contains the line:

I have tried everything I could possibly think of to get printer driver download working with Samba 2.2.3a-6 and CUPS 1.1.15-4 (latest Debian unstable packages). I am wondering if anyone else has go this to work at all (with newer versions of samba or cups?) -- if so please let me know to give me some hope. Or else I am thinking this is officially 'broken'. CUPS is working perfectly

Hello out there, perhaps anybody has some idea for my problem. I've had several nice successes with WINE. GoogleEarth e.g. or some of my old tools of the windows-times. Now yesterday I've sent my tax-declaration (in Germany: ElsterFormular) to the tax-administration, online. BUT: I couldn't print the declaration!! NOTHING at all happened. I havn't ever tried to print, it was not

Hi John thanks for your quick reply. If it is not a bug, as I was reading on the web, it is some misunderstanding from me. Running cups 1.4.2 (CentOS6) I was using the "BrowsePoll" directive in cupsd.conf. So the printers were automatically known from the central server of the lab. And home printers were working fine with this setup too. In CentOS7, with cups 1.6.3, this directive does

Hi there, I own a domestic lan with two computers, mine and my mother's one. Mine is called GREENDEMON and the other one is called BLUEDEMON and they both are configured to run on the REDLOCAL workgroup. I've Debian Woody running on GREENDEMON and Windows 98 running on BLUDEMON, with an attached Nec Silentwriter Superscript 610 printer. This printer is only compatible with Windows 9x

I am running wine 20050725 under KDE/Debain/testing with binaries from deb http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/ binary/ on the client in question. I am trying to print from QuickBooks 6 to a printer server (Brother HL1240) running cups 1.1.18. The client is accessing the printer from kprinter and printing from the native Linux applications with no problem. When I try to print from QuickBooks I

Hi Lange, thanks for these links. Following John reply I goes back and deeper in looking for documentation. Using the web interface is not an option as I have many laptops to set up and they are all automatically (re)installable from a PXE boot + kickstart in case of trouble. So all must be setup automatically (using command lines in the kickstart file) and user must be allowed to add their own

RH Linux 9 on AMD k6-2 500 Using HP deskjet 930c on USB Samba version: 2.2.7a cups version: 1.1.18 Hello - I have had a good look on this newsgroup - and what I've picked up I think is allowing me to ask these questions more intelligently. I've also had a good look at the CUPS documentation aswell as the Samba documentation. 1. Am I correct is assuming that CUPS only likes postscript,

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
