My Samba box consists of FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE. It has samba version 2.2.7a compiled on it.
The problem i have is printing via windows machines to the samba print share. the clients can 'print' ie send the data to the samba share where i have got samba setup to use bsd type printing. smb.conf lines are [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba browseable = no guest ok = no writeable = no printable = yes printing = bsd [lp] printable = yes browseable = yes print command = lpr -s -P %p %s; rm %s path = /tmp I have configured lpd with the lines in /etc/printcap as lp| Samsung Laser ML-4500:\ :lp=/dev/lpt0:sd=/var/spool/output/lpd:\ :if=/var/log/lpd-errs:sh:mx#0: When the clients print to the printer via samba, the data does get to lpd but checking the logs it spurts out -------------------------- Feb 15 19:30:51 print lpd[221]: lp: unable to open dfA011print.domain.com('f' line) Feb 15 19:30:51 print lpd[221]: lp: job could not be printed (cfA011print.domain.com) --------------------------- Does anyone want know what is going on and how to make it print out instead of saying this error message.
