if so, you don't want to have the 'raw' option enabled on the cups printer at all (comment out the 'raw' lines in /etc/cups/mime.types and /etc/cups/mime.convs and restart cups). If you are referring to printing directly from Windows to port 631 on the RHEL ES4 system, this has nothing to do with Samba at all Craig -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
