I'm now running samba 3.0-alpha19. I can get it to print
now, but when you try to open the spool in Windows, it
has the message "Failed to open, retrying" So, windows
thinks that the documents are always pending and the
printer on the systray never goes away.
I was going to attach my log of looking at the printer
in Network Neighborhood and then printing a test page,
but it's too big to include here because it's log level 3.
Log level 2 just doesn't include enough detail because
it just has that basics essentially and no messages I saw
indicated that there was any problem. For some reason,
Windows doesn't want to open the spool.
If you would like the log.samba file, please just send
me an email and I'll send it to you.
Here are the pertinent sections from my config file:
[global]
server string = Samba Server %v on (%L)
security = SHARE
encrypt passwords = Yes
null passwords = Yes
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n
*Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n .
log level = 3
syslog = 2
log file = /var/log/samba/log.samba
printcap name = lpstat
os level = 34
preferred master = True
domain master = True
wins support = Yes
invalid users = root adm bin boot daemon digital field games
gateway gopher halt mail news operator ris samba sccs shutdown sys sync uucp
valid users = bonnie shippy nobody
hosts allow = 192.168.0. 127.0.0.
printing = cups
[Epson]
comment = Epson Stylus COLOR 777
path = /var/spool/samba
guest ok = Yes
printable = Yes
print command = lpr -P %p -o raw %s -r
lpq command = lpstat -o %p
lprm command = lprm -P %p %j
printer name = Epson
use client driver = Yes
Thanks.
