[Samba] RH9, Samba 2.2.8a and printing with CUPS

Thu Jun 26 13:15:01 GMT 2003

Some quick things to look at.
The [global] settings:

printing = cups (not bsd -My understanding is that you want to use cups)
No print comman needed with cups
add printcap name = lpstat

Under [printers]:

[printers]
       comment = Alle Printere
       path = /var/spool/samba
       read only = Yes
       create mask = 0700 (I do not use this in mine)
       guest ok = Yes
       public = Yes
       printable = Yes
       browseable = Yes

Use these setting and see the results.  Sorry for my hurry, admin'n for
the staff this morning.  Hope this helps, and look over the document links
the other posting sent.  Cheers
