Re: [Samba] print driver options different on samba

If you're using CUPS, check to see if CUPS sees all the options. ok, redhat 7.3, samba 2.2.7, and i've switched from lprng to CUPS 1.1.14. both samba and cups are the latest updated version from redhat. Also, if you are using CUPS, you can probably just use the PPD that's on the Windows machines. i used the PPD from the windows machine to configure the CUPS printer. this worked fine, CUPS see's all the configurable options, all 13 different paper sizes. but still when i configure on the win2k client i only get 5 paper sizes. One more if: If you find that your underlying printing system (be it CUPS or whatever) does not see all the options, you need to fix that first, before you can ask for more help here. Contact your friendly neighborhood print system mailing list. i can make avialable the PPD and .inf if necessary. -- Darin Perusich Unix Systems Administrator Cognigen Corp.

[Samba] print driver options different on samba
hello, i have a toshiba FC22 printer/copier which is attached to a fiery Z4 RIP and i'm running into a driver option issue. the print driver is a slightly modified version of the adobe postscript driver 5.2, more trays, paper sizes, etc. when i setup this printer via either a local win2k TCP/IP printer or network printer on a win2k or nt4 server i get all the paper sizes, trays, etc. yet when i set it up on the samba server i'm only getting like 5 of the paper options, compared to 13 on the win2k server. any thoughts as to why this is happening? -- Darin Perusich Unix Systems Administrator Cognigen Corp.

Re: [Samba] print driver options different on samba
What subsystem and on what OS are you running Samba? I'd bet that it's not an issue with Samba, per se, but an issue with the underlying printing system. If you're using CUPS, check to see if CUPS sees all the options. i'm running redhat 7.3 with LPRng-3.8.9 that's included with the distribution. i'm using the generic postscript driver as there is nothing specificly for the fiery z4. Also, if you are using CUPS, you can probably just use the PPD that's on the Windows machines. If you're not using CUPS, you should be using CUPS. :) i'll give cups a try. this is just a test system so switching from lprng isn't a problem. thanks -- Darin Perusich Unix Systems Administrator Cognigen Corp.
