I could use some help here... Re: [Samba] Accessing printer fromoutside the domain

[kenneth westelinck]

You'll probably have to put your printer public, and map bad users to guest
user. This is working for me:
[global]
...
   map to guest = Bad User

this is my printer:
[lj5l]
    path = /tmp
    printer name = lj5l
    writable = yes
    public = yes
    guest ok = yes
    guest account = smbprint
    printable = yes
    print command = lpr -Praw %s
    lpq command = lpq -Praw
    lprm command = lprm -Praw %j

make sure smbprint (or the guest account) exists on your UNIX/Linux machine.
