I have Samba 2.2.6 complied against Cups 1.1.16 on a Sparc system running Solaris 9. Cups has replaced the stock system V lp spooler on this system (original packages removed.)
Cups working from UNIX command line is A-OK. I have been working on setting up Samba to play nice with cups. I have followed the instructions from both the Cups and Samba websites to set up downloading of the generic Adobe postscript drivers to MS Windows PCs and use CUPS as a RIP. So far I have been unable to get the Windows 98 drivers to download to the client PC - when adding the printer the client ends up asking the user what type of printer is being added. Driver downloads for W2K work OK. The relevant lines from a Samba log file seem to be: ----------------- [2002/10/28 14:17:46, 9] printing/nt_printing.c:get_a_printer_2(2702) Unpacked printer [ur10] name [\\techops\ur10] running driver [ur10] [2002/10/28 14:17:46, 10] printing/nt_printing.c:get_a_printer(3302) get_a_printer: [ur10] level 2 returning WERR_OK [2002/10/28 14:17:46, 10] printing/nt_printing.c:get_a_printer_driver_9x_compatible(1825) driver key: [DRIVERS/WIN40/0/ur10] [2002/10/28 14:17:46, 8] printing/nt_printing.c:get_a_printer_driver_3(1758) get_a_printer_driver_3: [DRIVERS/WIN40/0/ur10] info3->name [ur10] info3->datafile [\print$\WIN40\0\ur10.PPD] info3->helpfile [\print$\WIN40\0\ADOBEPS4.HLP] info3->monitorname [PSMON.DLL] info3->defaultdatatype [RAW] info3->environment [Windows 4.0] info3->driverpath [\print$\WIN40\0\ADOBEPS4.DRV] info3->configfile [] [2002/10/28 14:17:46, 10] smbd/lanman.c:get_printerdrivernumber(799) 9x compatable driver line for [ur10]: [ADOBEPS4.DRV:ur10.PPD:ADOBEPS4.HLP:PSMON.DLL:RAW:] [2002/10/28 14:17:46, 3] smbd/lanman.c:get_printerdrivernumber(836) Can't determine number of printer driver files [2002/10/28 14:17:46, 3] smbd/lanman.c:api_DosPrintQGetInfo(918) api_DosPrintQGetInfo: Driver files count: 0 [2002/10/28 14:17:46, 10] printing/nt_printing.c:get_a_printer(3277) get_a_printer: [ur10] level 2 [2002/10/28 14:17:46, 6] rpc_parse/parse_prs.c:prs_debug(60) 000000 sec_io_desc_buf nt_printing_getsec ------------------- Cupsaddsmb ran without errors and the WIN40 subdirectory is populated with files.
