I've had a Samba 3.0.2 Print Server running for nearly 7 months now without too much of a hitch on RedHat Enterprise "ES" 3.0. Late last week, RedHat issued an Errata that moved Samba from the 3.0.2 base to the 3.0.4 base. So when I did the "up2date" this weekend as part of my normal maintenance, this server was updated and everything appeared to be fine. Things are

Hi all, I encounter a problem here on a samba PDC with 97 cups printers. When on a windows client, I click right on a printer, then select "properties", it tooks about 12 secondes to open. When from a spreadsheet such as M$ Excel I click on print, then try to select an imprimante from my pdc, it tooks about 30 seconds. I did some debugging, and with an strace on the smb process, found

hi all, i have samba 3.0 on a fedora-linux running. almost everyting works fine, except one printer, my hp psc 750 (connected via usb) is not printing via samba. I get pages printed (via cups or whatever) if i print from the localhost. So, here a few data from my smb.conf: printcap name = cups printing = cups load printers = yes [printers] comment = All Printers path =

I'm having trouble printing to a HP LaserJet 6MP Postscript printer. I'm using CUPS and normal UNIX printing works fine. I've tried to configure SAMBA for point and click printing. That all seemed to go okay except that what is printed is: ===================================================== -12345X@PJL JOB @PJL SET RESOLUTION = 600 @PJL SET ECONOMODE = OFF @PJL ENTER LANGUAGE =

Hi, I wonder if anyone can help me out here. I have an apple laserwriter (postscript) printer attached to the network via ethertalk. I have the printer set up in cups, using the pap backend found here (http://users.phg-online.de/tk/CUPS/backend/pap). I then set the printer up through samba so that windows (XP) users can print to it. However if I print a test page from windows, the job prints

Nope, close but no cigar. With 2.2.6Pre2 Word started to behave itself but Outlook acts as though landscape is a foreign concept(i.e everything prints portrait regardless of page setup). Spoolsv also crashes on the Win2K workstations requiring a manual restart of the spooler service. We will downgrade to 2.2.5 and try Jerry's patch. In another message Jerry talks about "running"

Hello everyone, I've got a Xerox Work Centre 5735 that I'm printing to via Samba. When I install the drivers on a client (using the right-click-Connect method) from the samba shared printer then the install goes smoothly but I can't load the Printing Preferences dialogue for that printer, I get an "Operation could not be completed" error. This same error does not occur

Hello all, I know I need to read the manual but I don't even know where I need to look in the manual. I'm haveing a little bit of a problem getting XP to print to my linux printer. I've got the smb.conf file set up to allow xp to access the corect share and it even sees the printer but it apears it doesn't have permision to print to it. What might I need to do to

Hello, since samba 3.4 we have the problem, that printer options, preconfigured by the admin (number of paper trays, output etc.), are not available for normal users. They only see the default settings. Domain Admins and users with SePrintOperatorPrivilege doesn't have this problem. Guenther already started fixing this issue about 3/4 year ago

I've got a Brother HL-L2360D series printer connected to Centos 7. CUPS lists it as Generic PCL6/PCL Printer - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.2.9 . When I tell it to print a pdf file, it prints at most the first page. After powering the thing off and turning it on again, it printed page 3 of pages 3-6 . On trying it again, the thing claimed it was receiving data and printed page 3 of pages 3-6 again.

Hi all This is my first time writting to samba I'd like to get a quickly help in this: Where can I find a program or how can I configure my samba server in order to limit the number of pages to be printed by users. Best regards

Hi, I recently migrated from samba3 to samba4. On the samba3 server I had a "printer" that converted pcl6 to pdf. I tried to make a similar printer in samba4, but it's not working. Not working means the printed document is nowhere to be found. This is the section in smb.conf : [papyrusPDF] comment = Papyrus-to-PDF printer path = /var/spool/samba # guest ok = Yes

hi. I am trying to get print working and have a hard time indeed... My goal is to replace our nt4 print server with a linux/samba one as we have problems serving printers and drivers to win2000 workstations (and I don't want to set up a win2000 server for printing, and have the same problem _again_ when switching to XP ;-) The situation so far : - Debian woody - Samba 2.2.4-1 - Winbind

Hi, I trying to print a label printer that is attached to a windows95 machine. The job is sent to the printer queue on the linux machine (Red Hat 7.3), but never printed on the printer. When I check the status of the print queue on the linux machine, I get the following: [root@S12601 syn]# lpq -Pbinpos Printer: binpos@S12601 Queue: no printable jobs in queue Server: no server active Status:

I have an Epson Stylus Color 880, connected to our network via an external ethernet printserver. I used to run lprng on the samba server (which is a domain controller), and the Windows clients had one minor problem accessing this printer via Samba (2.2.3a, then): Every time a client wanted to print, the Epson status monitor on the client would complain about communication problems with the

I have a SMB printer on my network (HP1120C connected to a Windows XP machine). CUPS test page printed OK (CUPS v1.1.x) so printer appears to be installed and set up correctly for printing from my CentOS 5 machine. Problem is when I try to print multi-page emails, I get an unspecified error after printing the first page and it won't print any more pages - in fact it just keeps printing the

I am at my wits end. I have a brother hl1440 laser which I have working with Linux under cups, but I cannot get it working with samba and seen by a Windows XP system. I already have disk shares working properly. The printers name under cups is 1440. I want it's Windows printing to be done by the Windows driver. All the docs I have found online all seem to assume you already are a

Hello, this is my first post to this list, so if there is another list which might be better, I would appreciate a link. I am trying to print to my wife's printer which is hooked via usb to her powerbook with Mac OS 10.2. Having played with samba for quite awhile I can now view and write to her mac from my windows pc. But I still cannot print. I have enabled all print sharing options in

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello world, I've dug through the docs and googled through the net, but I'm still unable to fix my Samba (2.2.3a-6 for Debian) setup so that I can print from my wife's Windows XP laptop. The server is using Cups and I can print from the server and over the net from my (Debian) laptop. The XP box can connect to the server and browse
