Hello:

Somebody can solve me this problem?:

1- I have been installed the RedHat 6.0. I have an HP 670C printer
configured like an HP 560C and works well in Linux. The problem appears
when I want to share to print in other computer since Win95. I have
installed Samba 2.0.3, and I see the printer since the computer Win95. I

configure the printer with the driver of the HP 560C that has Win95. The

proble is that when I try to print a page win gives me an error:

A problem occurrs when print in \\PC2\HP_LINUX with the printer
(HP_DESKJET 560C PRINTER)
A problem occurrs when print because an unknown error of the system.

I try to configure the queue with the RAW option, but I have the same
problem. What can I do?

My /etc/printcap is the following:

#
# Please don't edit this file directly unless you know what you are
doing!
# Be warned that the control-panel printtool requires a very strict
format!
# Look at the printcap(5) man page for more info.
#
# This file can be edited with the printtool in the control-panel.
