Hi All,
I'm trying to use Samba with LPRng, but i got no success.
I'll use my Linux box as a Spool manager, and the printers are in the Windows box.
Well, I've created an empty /etc/lpd.conf and a /etc/lpd.perms with only
"DEFAULT ACCEPT".
Follow, my /etc/printcap:
epson:cm=Dummy Printcap Entry:
:lp=/dev/null
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/%P
:sh:if=/usr/bin/smbprint
smb:
:lp=|/usr/bin/smbprint
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/%P:
and here the .config of each printer :
/var/spool/lpd/epson/.config:
share='//josi/epson'
hostip=192.168.8.129
user='usuario'
password='senha'
workgroup='gruponet.com.br'
and
/var/spool/lpd/smb/.config:
share="//josi/epson"
hostip="192.168.8.129"
I've setted the right permissions and run the checkpc, so the permissions
warning disapear.
In my smb.conf I put the follow in [global] :
printcap name = /etc/printcap
load printers = yes
printing = lprng
print command = /usr/bin/lpr -P%p -r %s
lpq command = /usr/bin/lpq -P%p
lprm command = /usr/bin/lprm -P%p %j
lppause command = /usr/sbin/lpc hold %p %j
lpresume command = /usr/sbin/lpc release %p %j
queuepause command = /usr/sbin/lpc -P%p stop
queueresume command = /usr/sbin/lpc -P%p start
and in the [printers] :
[printers]
path = /var/spool/lpd/%p
comment = Impressoras
browseable = yes
public = yes
guest ok = no
printable = yes
I can map a Printer from my Windows client but when I try to send something
to be printted The document dont go to the printer and no error occurs...
Anybody knows what's wrong?
PS: Sorry my bad english
Thanks...
Fernando Giorgetti.
