Hi, just wanted to say, this problem is still present.

I updated all of our computers to 1.7.08 and now we have large paper wastage :)

This is not a samba problem. We use mainly OpenAFS 1.7.08 32bit on Windows XP Prof SP3 (german). Our printers (different Kyocera, HP and Konica Minolta models) are all connected via two Windows Server 2003 print servers.

Sometimes the printers do not print the smilies. Then there are two print jobs in chain (screenshot attached). These jobs also occur on printers which are not connected to the owners computer... very strange.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Michael Richter

We have observed that windows clients running an installation of the
OpenAFS client version 1.7.201 and later will, unknown to the user,
print garbage on all our printers. Every time a user opens/refreshes the
Samba share exporting the printers, each available printer will print 2
pages each containing a single line of output:

,\ ☺☺

In case the above UTF-8 does not survive the mail system:

<komma><backslash><space><smileyface><smileyface>

Just viewing the share exporting the printers will trigger this.

We only see this when the OpenAFS Client Service is running and only
after version 1.7.201. It even happens when the windows Print Spooler
service is stopped but AFS is running.

Has anybody else seen this or have an explanation?

Should I file a bug report on this?
