I don't have use/desire/inclination/motivation/need or downright bravery to use Micro$haft software either, but it is certainly a tool to help you sell Linux to a good prospect.

samba and pdfs
Hi All, I am trying to print a pdf from an XP workstation to my samba shared printer attached to a fedora core 9 server. I can print other kinds of docs from each workstation (email, spreadsheets, pictures and the like) but for some reason I cant print PDFs. The printer is a canon i560 on the lpt port, I have tried different PDFs and even different clients (Adobe and Foxit Reader) and the same behavior happens: the priniting dialog comes up I accept it, it starts the printing progress bar, sits in that state for approx minute and then returns like it worked. If sombody could point me to a resource, I have spent an hour looking on the web to no avail, I would be most thankful.

Re: samba and pdfs
I guess some more details would be helpful: I am using a raw printer: here is the samba.conf lines that are important: cups options = raw printing = cups local master = Yes printcap name = cups security = share printer = Cannon560 load printers = yes [Cannon560] public = yes writable = no printable = yes path = /var/spool/samba use client driver = Yes I am using the Canon i560 driver on the Windows boxes On Tue, Oct 28, 2008 at 12:26 PM, Craig White [EMAIL PROTECTED]wrote: On Tue, 2008-10-28 at 12:20 -0700, Sean Roe wrote: Hi All, I am trying to print a pdf from an XP workstation to my samba shared printer attached to a fedora core 9 server.
