Greetings Samba ppl.
I have a samba 2.2.1a box (RH 6.2) acting as a print server for ~50
people. This box uses BSD style printing.
I wander in to work this morning to find out that one of the printers
has somehow paused itself. This was weird cuz I've never implemented an
``lppause command'' or ``queuepause command'' in the samba config.
Hrmm. How does a printer go and pause himself? I had to use lpc to
bring it down and back up again in order for printing to resume.
Now I'm curious: how could lppause and queuepause be implemented with
such a printing system?
Regards,
kw
