> Hi, Sorry to bother you directly, but I thought you could have a fast
> answer to a problem I am having with lprng.
>
> I am using the latest version of lprng with the latest version of
> samba in a Red Hat linux 6.2 server.
> I have set up several printers on the Linux server using Linksys
> printservers and Samba to share the printers with the Windows 95/98
> Clients - the idea is to print from Windows 95/98 apps (like excel).
>
> Everything works fine when printing one copy of any document from
> Excel, but when I try to print two copies of a document from Excel -
> lprng only prints one copy and the other copy (that looks like a
> different job) stays on the print queue, holding back every other job
> sent to that queue. The only way right now for me to print the second
> copy is to manually restart the lpr daemon. The problem does not
> happen with other Windows apps. They present the multiple copies as
> one job to Samba, but excel is splitting the copies in multiple print
> jobs.
>
> do you know a way of fixing this problem ? Do I have to add some
> switch to the lpr command called from samba ?
No, sorry. I am unable to duplicate this with Office 2000...
What version are you running?
