[newbie] Samba and Epson Stylus Pro Printer.

1999-09-18 Thread Eric L. Damron 

Has anyone used a shared injet printer with Samba?

My windows client won't let me create the share because it says that the
printer is off-line.  I used SWAT to setup the printer and it does show up
in the browsing list for the server.

I'm using Red Hat 6.0 (Mandrake 6.0) and the printer is an Epson Stylus Pro.

I have the printer connected to the printer port of the server.  (The
printer is NOT networked with a CARD and RJ45 cable.)

I have an Epson Stylus Pro hanging off my Linux server.  I can print fine
from the Linux box and I have configured Samba as follows:

[Epson Stylus Pro]
  comment = Epson Color Ink Jet
  path = /var/spool/samba
  print ok = Yes

When I try to attach to the printer my windows 98 client says that the
printer is off-line.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

back up your /etc/smb.conf, and try swat and/or linuxconf maybe. if that
doesn't work.
