Thanks in advance for any help.
The problem:
My HP710c prints fine locally, is visible on the LAN
to my W98 box but printing from W98 to the printer
does nothing.
The printer installs & works OK from M7.2 (& from W98
on LPT1).
It can be found on the lan by W98 (off the Linux
server) by browsing for printers.
Printing to the SMB shared printer (installed as hp on
the M7.2 box) from Windows generates no Windows
errors, but also no hard copy.
I've configured it as well as I can from assorted
how-to documents, but this step has me stuck.
The following excerpt from the log.smb file also
decribes the smb.conf file... no errors that I can
see.

param/loadparm.c:do_section(2481)
Processing section "[hp]"
doing parameter printer name = hp
doing parameter writeable = yes
doing parameter browseable = yes
doing parameter public = yes
doing parameter printable = yes
doing parameter create mode = 0700
doing parameter print command = lpr-cups -P hp %s
doing parameter lpq command = lpstat -o hp
doing parameter path = /var/spool/cups
the Kups tool lists 2 directories:
temp files: /var/spool/cups/tmp
temp requests: /var/spool/cups
but I'm not sure how these relate to the smb
configuration.
Thanks....
