Hi. I've been running CentOS 4 since it was released (since 4.0). I did a fresh install and have kept it updated using up2date and yum so at present my system is running CentOS 4.2. I mostly use my system as a super-user and so I can mostly do everything without worrying too much about permissions. Not too long ago I created a "general" user account which is automatically logged

Hi. I mostly use my system as a super-user and so I can mostly do everything without worrying too much about permissions. Not too long ago I created a "general" user account which is automatically logged in after a few seconds for others to have (limited) access to the system. Mostly everything works (ie. CD/DVD writing, sound, floppy access, etc.) But when it comes to printing, only

I had a working Samba installation on my home network. Then I replaced one printer with another. The new printer is successfully installed on my RedHat 9.0 system on /dev/lp0. It is an Epson C82. From the RedHat system all is well. However, I am unable to print to this printer via Windows XP boxes on my network. Samba is working to the extent that Windows can find these printers via

Hello there, We're using a reasonably large network of linux boxes, about 6 of them offering printing services through CUPS. This has worked remarkably stably for the last months, but we've got one lasting problem with Samba that someone may have a hint to offer. We use an smbd on one of the linux boxes that offers the shared CUPS printers to the windows clients on the network. Now

Sorry if this is a stupid question but I tried reading, studying and finding solution but am not making it alone :) On my home lan I have a Linux (Debian sid) box (192.168.174.244) running 3.0.10 samba and cups 1.1.23. My objective is to print from this box to the other home PC which is running XP (192.168.174.242) and sharing an Epson R200 printer. Follows the troubleshooting I could do

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'm trying to get my Epson Stylus Color 600 to work with a windows app using wine. My distr (SuSE 9.2) uses CUPS and works fine, but i can't get it to work in wine. The manual is not really helping me out. When i try to print i get : fixme:commdlg:PRINTDLG_OpenDefaultPrinter Could not open printer styluscolor600?! err:psdrv:PSDRV_FindPrinterInfo OpenPrinterA failed with code 1801 Can

Hi, I've installed Samba 2.2.7a on a Red Hat 9 machine. This machine is also running VMware with Windows XP as the guest OS. The XP virtual machine can access the Linux host's shared directories, but not the printer. The printer is an Epson Stylus Color 860. It works fine in the Linux host. In the XP guest, I can see the printer in the add printer configuration wizard. But when

Hello, I am running Windows XP and Windows NT workstations on a lan with a samba 2.2.4 server providing files and printers to these workstations. I have the following printers shared by samba: HP LaserJet 1200 Epson Stylus Color 3000 Epson Stylus Pro XL HP DesignJet 755 CM HP DesignJet 2500 CP The problem I am having is that Windows XP and Windows NT are using different drivers for the same

This is a hard one. I can set up cups & samba fine to print ok on FreeBSD and to print from W2K on BSD - ahh, but only with the windows printer driver for Epson - which sucks - there is no way to clean heads, the color is horrible, print area is limited, etc. The major problem is that there does not seem to be any documentation that explains clearly how the configuration works either for

Hi All, Has anyone currently, or in the past, setup an Okidata ML 395 (or any of Okidata's impact printers, for that matter) on a CentOS box? I'm having a miserable time with the ML 395: I'm looking for some tips. I have an AMD Opteron server running CentOS 4 (x86_64). CUPS is running happily for two Canon imageRunner's (via BrightQ Pro from Codehost). The Okidata ML 395 is

I am trying to allow printing from my linux box to my win98 box, to which my epson stylus printer is attached. It's just not happening...something tells me I'm flirting with a world of pain. I *can* print a file by going: smbclient //rory/EPSON translate print /etc/group but I cannot print from applications, nor can i use smbprint. I tried going: cat /etc/passwd | sh -x smbprint

Hey all, In this week's Open Source Highlights I read: "Check ink level: If you have an Epson, Canon, HP, or Sony printer, you can see its ink level with a simple application. Look for the "ink" package in your distribution repositories." I checked my package manager but I didn't find any "ink" package. Does such a package exist for Centos? Is so, what

I am having an awful time getting a cups printer on a linux system visible to windows XP. I have the printer, a brother hl1440 laser, working on Linux cups,named 1440. I then created another printer on it called raw-1440 and specified raw driver so teh Windows XP driver would be used. Here is my smb.conf entries: load printers = yes printcap name = cups printing = cups [printers] comment =

We have a printing reliability problem with Samba printers/queues and we are trying to figure out how to troubleshoot it more methodically. Situation: We've been running Samba 3.x (always current/latest) for over a year with primarily Windows 2000 clients. This summer we are converting our 100 Win2K PCs to XP; this conversion is nearly complete. Our Samba printing is CUPS-based to HP
