Hello,
I'm trying to set up printing over samba to an HP845c printer
attached (usb) to a Win2K box on the network.I did look smbclient to begin with, but this fails - smbclient //<Win2KBox/<printer> password: <supplied> Domain=[<domain_name>] OS=[Windows 5.0] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager] smb: \> print <filename> putting file <filename> as <filename> (130.5 kb/s) (average 75.3 kb/s) smb: \> The printer initializes itself (the usual "about to print" noise) Takes sheet of paper from paper tray Printer stops Manual Paper feed button light starts blinking I press the blinking light button One sheet is ejected, with one line (stepped) at the top Any ideas as to what's wrong here? The document I tested is a simple text file (/etc/hosts). Failing this, I am aware that apsfilter and CUPS do have claims to provide for what I'm trying here, but I'm wondering if anyone has ever gotten this particular printer to work with either apsfilter or CUPS before I start heading down that road. I've looked at both respective home sites, and haven't seen the hp845c "explicitly" mentioned as a supported printer (at either site & ghostscript's website), although HP's linux printing webpages list it as supported with something called HPIJS?? Thanks for any replies. Stacey -- Stacey Roberts B.Sc (HONS) Computer Science Web: www.vickiandstacey.com
