I can print the files manually using the command
/usr/bin/lp -c -o nobanner -T postscript -d pagepro6 SAMBA.2Wa40i
or, as I have found somewhere (this is in my smb.conf)
/usr/bin/nawk '/^%!PS/, /^%%EOF/' SAMBA.2Wa40i | /usr/bin/lp -c -o nobanner -T postscript -d pagepro6
.. the only problem is that it seems like the "print command" is never executed
once a print request arrives.
The complete contents of my smb.conf (that has to do with printing) follows:
[global]
debug level = 2
...
log file=/var/log/samba.%m
...
printing = bsd
printcap name = /etc/printers.conf
load printers = yes
...
...disk shares...
[printers]
comment = "All printers"
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = no
printable = yes
public = yes
writable = no
create mode = 0700
[pagepro6]
path = /var/spool/samba
printer name = pagepro6
writable = yes
public = yes
printable = yes
print command = /usr/bin/nawk '/^%!PS/, /^%%EOF/' %s | /usr/bin/lp -c -o nobanner -T postscript -d %p; rm -f %s
Any suggestion besides sett ing up a cron job to print everything in
the spool directory every minute or so, but this isn't the optimal
solution to the problem ?
