print share

[loredana.martusciello at isti.cnr.it]

I'm trying to configure a print server with samba 2.2.8.

I tried some simple test configurations but I was not able
to print from a pc-windows-XP.

Is there someone that can send me a complete simple configuration
example ?

In my case:
I can print successfully from VMS to the printer via Samba/VMS command 
smbclient \\mainserver\hp4100
(the VMS printer queue is managed by DCPS).

I can see the printer by the windows-xp printers browser.
I can select the printer: I receive the request to install a print
driver that i select from local disk.
If I select the printer (by a double-click) I don't get any progress: it
remains appended.

Below I append my smb.conf

Best regards,
Loredana
