Before I start, I know this isn't a Samba-related issue but it seems to be a widespread enough problem that someone else may have figured out a Samba-oriented workaround, or any other solution for that matter. There seems to be a problem with certain models of HP Laserjet (including, but not limited, to the 4000 series and other models from the same era - it is apparently fixed in the 4100).

Hi, I created a PDFPrinter as per http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=samba&m=105301236523413&w=2 I have another question, do I need to add a Color Laser Printer Driver in W2K to the PDF share to generate color PDF in Windows? Regards, Norman

Hello folks: The introduction: Great product this Samba! The problem: I am trying to migrate an HP LaserJet 4 printer in our office off a VMS system and hang it directly off the back of a UNIX machine. I have created the new entry in the printcap (see below) file on that machine and can print from UNIX - no problem. I created the share in Samba with what I think works pretty well (see below).

Hello, I am trying to install automatic printer driver download and install. I am running Samba 3, as a PDC, on RedHat 7.3. It seems everything is setup correctly, although I cannot get the rpcclient to 'see' my printer. Please notice these two printers listed below ar the same (lp & HP2300). [root@mercury log]# rpcclient -U=root localhost Password: rpcclient $> enumprinters

Red Hat 7.3 samba 2.2.6-pre1 using bsd style printing printers: HP LaserJet 8100 HP LaserJet 8150 HP Color LaserJet 4500 HP Color LaserJet 4550 Problem: I set up printers in linux via printconf as JetDirect queues. I have ~90 printers, all but 12 of which are HP LJ 4000/4050. I can send a test page [both ASCII and

I cranked the debug level to 10. Below is a transcript from the client log file of a client trying to open a Properties dialog for the HP 4500 printer. I am puzzled as to why Samba would be looking for a user with the name of a printer. Is this normal behavior? Anyway, about a minute after the last log entry below, the client showed a dialog "Printer properties cannot be

We are using roaming profiles. I have a user that logs onto two computers that are in different buildings. Computer 1 is collections w/ default printer HP Laserjet 4000DTN (10.8.9.223) and Computer 2 is salesshop w/ default printer HP Laserjet 4100DTN (10.8.3.31). The user complains that when she logs into salesshop, does her work, logs out, and then logs in at the collections computer,

I have about 400 users and 400 computers. But my samba db has about 40000 objects. I think it is so much. I have watched a lot of printer objects associated with the computer name on which they are attached. Is it normal ? Can I delete all of these printer objects ? Look at this: ldbsearch -H /usr/local/samba/private/sam.ldb.d/DC\=DTCF\,DC\=ETECSA\,DC\=CU.ldb 'cn=*Laser*' dn ...

Running samba installed from rpm 2.2.5-1 on rh 7.2 system... security=domain with winbind to NT pdc, LPRng Trying to pause printing without specifying a queuepause command I get: You do not have permissions to modify the settings for this printer.

I have a hopefully simple question (although my previous questions I thought were simple received no responses.lol). I am trying to get the automatic printer driver downloading working. I followed all the instructions, but I'm still having some problems. When I get to adding the printer driver by navigating to the printer share (print$) and selecting properties on the printer, then doing the

This occurs with Samba downloaded drivers of an installed printer. When attempting to view the printer properties you receive the following error: ?Function address 0x2d04193 caused a protection fault. (exception code 0xc0000005) Some or all property page(s) may not be displayed.? Followed by: ?The ?<drivername>? printer driver is not installed on this computer. Some printer properties

I'm setting up faxing from our server using mgetty+sendfax, and the setup from http://relay.boerde.de:82/~horstf/ Basically, what this does is collect the print job normally via samba print services, then asks the user what number to fax it to. The asking is done by a program run on the user's system at startup called 'responder'. I have installed the print drivers on to the

Hi, I've been toying with the idea of using the Linux machine as a print server. I'm using RedHat 5.2 and Samba 2.0.3. I already have one remote printer share working... but I can't figure out where the PrintTool in RedHat is storing the remote printers IP address. Anyone know where? :) (not important just bugging me - I hate when OS's hide stuff) I have the Samba book

For some reason, I cannot get samba (or Win98, depending on how you look at it...) to allow a win98 client to print. I search the list archives, but I didn't find anything similar. So here goes. Symptoms: - Win98 client can access fileshares OK. The printers show up OK as well in network neighbourhood. - On Linux, printing (lprng) works OK. - In win98, e.g. dir >

First allow me to issue this disclaimer... The following problem is most likely due to my own ignorance. Now on to the problem... I'm setting up some printer shares that allow automatic driver installation to Win 9x clients [printer$]. When we try to use these, the drivers install beautifully, but we get the following error message when we try to print: "There was an error writing to

Hi! I would like to hear what printers go good w/our operating system. While back, I should have checked w/y'all like I'm doing now but I just went ahead and bought a Konica-Minolta PagePro 1350W. Now that W at the end of 1350 is a huge word that means WINDOWS! grrrr! It's a great printer 21pgs/min etc but it doesn't like linux at all and their tech spt will tell you as much. I

Hi List! I've got a problem that I've read about on the web several times now, regarding the uploading of printer drivers to the samba [print$] share. When I try to set the printer driver for an existing printer (HP LaserJet 6L enabled with CUPS) the W2K wizard let me select the driver *.inf file but when finishing I get the well known error message: "Unable to install Intel,

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 =

Upgraded from RedHat 9 to CentOS 4.4 - disappointed to find there is still no printer support for HP Color Laserjet 3500 - any suggestions please? Thanks, Andy

Ah, it appears that I have confused myself... I indeed have ALL of the queues defined as JetDirect with the model specific driver selected in printconf. With this combination I am telling linux to modify the job [via the filter] and then pass it as a RAW [jetdirect] where I SHOULD just have the queue define as JetDirect with a RAW as the driver and let the job go as transmitted by the client
