Yeah, about that... Back in '12, we got a nice HP poster printer. They don't support Linux, but a co-worker got the .ppd out of the Mac support file. I tried it, then I looked at the file in vi... and found it *only* supported the 24" printer, *not* the 44" printer that we had. Well, we just bought a replacement, since the old printer was EOL'd. This time, I went to hplips,

Now that we've got the thing, does anyone know what ppd I can use for it? I've seen someone recommending: - the generic postscript ppd; - the hplips driver. I also see ppd's for a DesignJet 800ps, and ones for the 5000ps and 5500ps. Has anyone had any experience with any of these? mark

Well, today, I feel like a real, old time sysadmin. Now, I didn't have to write a driver in assembly for the printer, but.... We got this huge, 44" HP Designjet z3200ps printer. Only supports Win and Mac. Fine, I hang it off of one of our servers on a subnet (at $0.96/foot paper, we're the only ones who print on it....). Then I'm thinking that all I really need is a .ppd. My

This is just an FYI, folks. We've got this large poster printer. We had some, er, environmental issues, let us say, and first I had to recreate the .ppd (HP "doesn't support printing from Linux, and the one a former coworker extracted from the Mac package... was for a 23", not this 44"). Then... I was trying to print from a 6.9 box. I hadn't rebuilt the box as C 7,

We just got two of these HP LJ M602 "enterprise" printers in, and I'm trying to work out what driver/ppd. The model's not listed in the current - does anyone know what might work for it? I really don't want to have to install hplips on 140 or 150 systems.... mark

Hi all, This is a re-post of a question I originally submitted 10/22. There have been no responses, so I am trying again as this problem has us stalled in our tracks re managing printer drivers with rpcclient. >>I am getting a fatal Signal 11 event when I use >>install_printer_drivers.pl on AIX 4.3.3 with Samba 2.2.1a so I would like >>to bring you up to date on my

Hi Jerry Carter and list members, The post below was rejected by the list moderator as too big. That cost me four days and now I am really anxious for positive feedback from rpcclient experts either in the field or at samba.org. It was too big because I included a listing of STDERR and STDOUT from setting debug level to 10 in step #4 of install_printer_drivers.pl. I have trimmed it down by

Hello All, I have come across a problem that I am not sure where to begin: We have an HP DesignJet 5000 PS 60 wide format printer that is part of our public printing pool which we share out to the pc world via Samba. I am using Samba 3.0.11 in RHAS Enterprise Linux, Update 3. When I install the printer driver onto the server using the Windows APW, and then install the printer on a fresh

The Highlights: -CentOS 4.4 & CUPS -HPLIP Installed -Running as server, no GUI. -Can print from command-line no problem. -Printing from Windows XP via Samba puts job in the correct queue, job is processed but not parsed or rendered. The job is removed from the queue, but never prints. (I've RTFM and google'd it, no avail...) Help?? When printing from commandline (eg. cat file

Using cups web, I configured 2 copies of a Canon color copier and on one of them, I configured it use a black and white only. This works fine for localhost printing. The cups queues are shared with other hosts on the subnet. They automatically see the printers but when they print to the shared queue, the page comes out in color unless they specifically change it and do not consider the cups

Hello, I sent this request already last week, but got no answer (maybe I did not use a good subject). My problem is the following: I use server side drivers with samba 2.2.5 and cups. I add them usually with cupsaddsmb. This works quite well, but I have trouble with printers with really large papersizes. I have some HP Designjet in our Network, we need for our mechanical engineers, as well as

Hi, printer driver download with W2000/Xp (samba-2.2.7 and cups-1.1.18) and the Adobe PS Driver works fine for our location. But when I try to download a driver with W9X the driver installation widzard starts. Samba logs the following messages... (Cant determine number of printer driver files...) (see second apandix) The installation of the driver works with no error. (see first apendix) Has

Hi I have installed samba-2.2.7a and cups-1.1.18. After reading all the documentation samba provides as well as the cups administrators guide I am still stuck. I have added the printers just the way the samba and cups documentation says. Anyway here is my output from cupsaddsmb, It fails on the last step, so i have run that manually again afterwards with debugging enabled. I believe this to be

Hi, I have tried to use cups and samba together. Everything works great, however I am not able to configure and/or setup samba correctly, that the clients are able to install the driver. To test everything I used a dedicated system installed a fresh SuSE 8.0 and compiled samba (2.2.4) and cups (1.1.14). I only userd a differnet prefix for samba. Everything else is default.

Greetings, I am using Samba (both 2.2.8a and 3.0.4) on servers running CUPS and have used cupsaddsmb to make the Cups drivers available for download to the client PCs. Everything has been working as it should. I need to make some changes to the PPD files on the CUPS servers. The question I have is about propagating the changes to the client PCs. I can either hand edit the copy of the PPD
