[Samba] Printing via smbprint to a WinPrinter

[Marco Bizzarri]

Thank you for your answer. I did not explain myself:

once I'm inside the smb> prompt, and therefore I'm connected to the
printer, I try something like

print /etc/hosts

but nothing comes out.

Is there any other troubleshooting which I can do?

Bye
Marco
