OK. I installed CUPS, and printed a test page successfully from the Linux box. I configured Samba to use CUPS for printing (printing = cups, printcap = cups), tried a few configurations in the [printers] share (according to a few tutorials) -- the best I can get is to see the printer in the Windows box, but I can't print a test page... On one box it says no permission, on the other it just says it can't send the print job. ? ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
