Using Samba 3.05 and cups I'm having some trouble getting documents to print thru CUPS in raw mode. Documents print fine from the server but not from an XP client. When I used the following print command statement for troubleshooting the job is getting to the Samba server spool directory for that printer. The CUPS admin page never sees the job and no errors are given. Everything looks like it has printed just nothing comes out of the printer. When I print a test page from the server it prints and the job shows up in cups.
print command = cp %s /var/spool/samba/dell5300n/testprint.prn Question 1: What is a print command to use for raw printing thru cups Question 2: What are the correct permissions user/group for the /var/spool/samba/dell5300n spool directory.
