I've been able to print to a Gentoo Samba server (running a HP510) for ages
from Windows workstations (98 and XP), and still can from Windows. 

I have an old laptop that I recently installed Gentoo and Gnome on as a
workstation. When I try and use foomatic-configure to set up cups to the
same printer it just doesn't work. I must have been through the Gentoo
Printing Guide a dozen times and still can't configure. I’m obviously doing
something wrong …

The command I'm issuing is:

foomatic-configure -s cups -p HP-DeskJet_510 -c 
smb://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/HP510 -n dj510 -d gimp-print-ijs

The error I'm getting is:

Use of uninitialized value in substitution (s///) at 
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/Foomatic/DB.pm line 3427.
lpadmin: Unable to connect to server: Connection refused
Could not set up/change the queue "dj510"!

Can anyone help I would be really grateful ... !!  

Regards, Richard
