You have gone beyond my limited knowledge. I'm sure
someone less ignorant will join in. I use BRU and
I doubt there's enough similarity to help. Sorry.

I don't know if this will help but try to simplify things:
[Global]
printing = bsd
printcap name = /etc/printcap
; min print space = 2000
; load printers = yes
log file = /var/log/samba_log.%m
; lock directory = /var/lock/samba
Delete the printers section.
[deskjet]
path = /var/spool/samba/deskjet
; printer name = HP672c
; writable = yes
public = yes
printable = yes
; print command = /usr/bin/lpr -P %p -r %s
create mode = 0700
The directory "deskjet" may need 1777 permisions, I'm not sure.

Children seldom misquote you. In fact, they usually repeat word for
word what you shouldn't have said.

I am a 20 year old student who is just away to complete a HNC in computing.
I am going to University next year to do a degree in Computing.
My current course ends at the beginning of May and I have 4 months to spare
in the summer. I was wondering if anyone knew of any companies or where
involved in any companies that would be able to give me a work placement or
a short term working contract for a period during this time.
I live in Aberdeen.
During my HNC I have completed the following modules:
Information technology applications (Word, Excel, Access etc.)
Stand alone computer systems software support
Information systems and services
Software development - Life cycle
Software development - Procedural languages
Computer architecture
Maths for computing
Data communications
Publishing on the Internet
Intro to the Internet
Communications
Developing personal effectiveness

I have a Wangtec 5150ES which is the SCSI model. does your
5150 mode number end with EQ or EG? If EG its probally QIC-02, EQ
means QIC-36.
If its QIC-02 the next step is to recompile your kernal to
install the qic-02 serial devices. You will need to find the IO
address and IRQ of the board to get it to fly though. If you can find
out what the default IO address and IRQs of the qic-02 drivers of
linux. According to the
/usr/src/linux-2.0.37pre10/include/linux/tpqic02.h
file the following are the default
settings.
Wangtek, IO address of card is 0x300, IRQ is 5, DMA is 1
I pulled up the linux-2.0.37/drivers/char/tpqic02.c driver and
here is a little of info that might help you
*
* This is a driver for the Wangtek 5150 tape drive with
* a QIC-02 controller for ISA-PC type computers.
* Hopefully it will work with other QIC-02 tape drives as well.
*
* Make sure your setup matches the configuration parameters.
* Also, be careful to avoid IO conflicts with other devices!
*/
I believe there is a QIC-02 Howto somewhere that will be of
use to you. I know I saw one when I was looking for info on my SCSI
Wangtek 5150ES drive. Being my drive is Scsi 2 compliant, the qic-02
info was not of much use to me.
If you have the original software for dos for the drive. that
info about the card's settings will be present. use that info and
addjust your config files accordingly. You will need the dos software
to FORMAT those tapes too! unless they are already formatted.
