similar to: CUPS and Upload printer drivers ...

Hi all, I have a similar problem as Patrik yesterday. So I can copy some lines, but not all. We have an SuSE 8.1 machine who acts as an printserver. I'm sharing printers via Samba and using CUPS. Samba is 2.2.7a and CUPS 1.1.8. The Microsoft clients (Win9x, Win NT, Win 2k) is downloading the driver from the server. I had no problem to install and upload up to 2 printers but now I am not

Hi, I'm trying to set up a samba-cups-pdf-printserver. samba itself is running fine, but when i try to add the cups printer-drivers for windows i got the following error: System: Debian/sarge with 2.4.20 i686 GNU/Linux samba 3.0.2-2 cupsys 1.1.20final-13 Windows-driver from cups-samba-5.0rc1.tar ssflx01_v2:~# cupsaddsmb -a -v -U uuuu Password for uuuu required to access

Hi all, I'm trying to add printers with cupsaddsmb on Samba 3.0.20 (Mandrake Linux) with an LDAP backend. I've followed the howto on the samba page and have the error: result was WERR_INVALID_PRINTER_NAME generated when I run it. So far I've Googled for the solution but nothing listed has helped. The full set of errors are as follows: Cupsaddsmb returns:

SUSE 9.1 samba-3.0.9-2.6 samba-client-3.0.9-2.6 I am getting some errors that I can't seem to track down in any of the archives. I came across this problem when trying to delete a driver none of the printers are listed in the smb.conf - it is all being generated from the cups and the printcap that cups makes on load First enumprinters works: rpcclient $> enumprinters

Before anyone responds I would like to let everyone know my problem is fixed :) The problem was lpr would only spool so big of a file, so I had to add a -s option to it.

Hi Kurt, You are absolutely right (as always). After restarting smb, rpcclient setdriver works fine. May be - in the next future release - cupsaddsmb will work. Thank you very much.

Hello. I've been trying to set CentOS 3.1 as a print server for PC running NT4 using Samba + CUPS. I've successfully done this with Fedora Core 1 but have encountered the following error after running cupsaddsmb in CentOS 3.1: WERR_INVALID_PRINTER_NAME. This error also occurs with FC1, but is solved by restarting the smb service i.e. service smb restart. Run cupsaddsmb again after

Hi, Having a weird problem here. We've got Sambe 3.0.14a and cups 1.1.23 on a Debian system. I've run: cupsaddsmb -U RALPH\\jgoerzen -a -v Where RALPH is our PDC (and it also the machine I'm running this command on). The entire command *appears* to work, but: * None of the tdb files in /var/lib/samba, including ntforms.tdb, ntprinters.tdb, etc. have their date stamp updated.

Hello, I have desperately tried to make samba able to share the printer with a Win98SE client. First I tried cupsaddsmb, but that failed. Then I walked step by step through the installation manually as explained in the documentation, and everything stopped on this point: rpcclient -Uroot%xxxx -c 'adddriver "Windows NT x86"\

I have Samba 2.2.6 complied against Cups 1.1.16 on a Sparc system running Solaris 9. Cups has replaced the stock system V lp spooler on this system (original packages removed.) Cups working from UNIX command line is A-OK. I have been working on setting up Samba to play nice with cups. I have followed the instructions from both the Cups and Samba websites to set up downloading of the

Hi, while using cups as a print system and sharing all the printers with samba to windows clients, is it possible to 'view' a newly created printer in the browse list without restarting smbd ? (samba 2.2.7) Holger

Hi I've got some problems with the download of Adobe PostScript printer drivers on a Windows 98 client : On the server side (Red Hat 9 / Samba 3.0.1 / Cups 1.1.17) : I installed succesfully my printers with Cups and they work fine on Linux I ran cupsaddsmb tool to copy the Adobe files in the [print$] directory which gives this result : ...../W32X86/2 : cupsdrvr.dll cups.hlp

Hi Using: - SUSE 9.2 - SAMBA 3.0.7 - CUPS 1.1.21 I am successfully using my network printer under cups. Now I would like to share this printer to all windows clients with samba. These are my smb.conf configurations: ********************** [global] interfaces = eth0 ... load printers = yes printing = cups printcap name = /etc/printcap

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 all, I'm having a few problems getting samba to pass along settings for various print options for all of our printers. Printers are set up using PPDs in CUPS, added to samba via the cupsaddsmb command and then added to windows clients via point and print. Unfortunately any print jobs sent from windows appear to completely ignore many of the CUPS settings such as duplex and print

Hi, i try to set up a samba print server with cups, but when i use the cupsaddprinter command, all copy start & stop with no problem, and when the rppcclient command is launch to add the printer driver, it fails and show me this error: # cupsaddsmb -v -U root -a [...many lines...] result was WERR_INVALID_PRINTER_NAME I try to find somthing on the net and other ML & i find this to

Hi All, I was recently directed to look at some upstream CUPS changes which impact Samba's printer server functionality: cupsaddsmb has been dropped via https://github.com/apple/cups/commit/f1def5b85f51120f5dc1eb21e1f38860ef41be9c Given that it's only just gone in, I wouldn't expect it to reach distros for some time, but I think it's worth discussing how/whether we should react.

Hi, I am trying to query a W2K PDC for info on a print driver by issuing the following command: rpcclient -Uxxx%yyy -d 3 -c 'getdriver "HP LaserJet 8000 Series PS"' abert The response I get is: Initialising global parameters params.c:pm_process() - Processing configuration file "/etc/samba/smb.conf" Processing section "[global]" added interface

I am having trouble trying to add printer drivers from Windows XP. I'm running SAMBA 2.2.7a on SUSE 7.2. As best I can determine, the problem relates to permissions - Windows doesn't seem to be able to write the files to the printer driver directory on the server. Yet, I can set up an ordinary file share to that same directory and logged on as the same user, I can read and write the
