Whilst attempting the fix outlined in #21 / #25 / #26 I found this:
root@exabytes:/home/james# rpcclient localhost Unknown parameter encountered: "lpq" Ignoring unknown parameter "lpq" Enter root's password: rpcclient $> enumprinters flags:[0x800000] name:[\\LOCALHOST\] description:[\\LOCALHOST\,,HP_C4480] comment:[HP_C4480] Am I correct in thinking the printer has somehow lost its name? "name:[\\LOCALHOST\]" Attempting to change the name regardless results in the error: rpcclient $> setprintername HP_C4480 HP_C4480 result was WERR_ACCESS_DENIED The results are the same for both users 'root' and 'james' (a member of lpadmin). smb.conf contains... printer admin = @lpadmin, james Is anyone able to shed some light on what's happening here?
