Hi Samba admins,
I have a mysterious problems with printers.
When you are in a Windows application and you click on the icon to
print, you get no error messages anywhere but no paper output. You just
click again (sometime you have to repeat twice) and finally it prints
(one copy).
It happens to everyone on all PC on all printers.
PC are Windows 95, printers are network HP Laserjets setup with jetadmin
on 2 differents Sun Sparc20.
This has started to happen since I upgraded one of the Sun (the NIS+
root-master) from Solaris 2.5.1 to Solaris 2.6.
I haven't change anything in Samba (1.9.18p3). But I know the printing
system has change in the Solaris version.
In my smb.conf file I only have this regarding the printers:
load printers = yes
printcap name = /opt/samba/lib/printers
printing = sysv
where /opt/samba/lib/printers is:
sclhp4m|
sekhp5n|
sekhp5n2|
sihp4m
Any hints would be appreciated. Thank you.
