Now that I have my windows machine up and running, I recieve and error when
I try to print through SAMBA. I get a pop-up windows that says:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There was an error writing to \\SERVER\LaserJet4L for printer ( HP LaserJet
4L)
There was a problem printing to the printer due to an unknown system error
Restart windows, and then try printing again
This Printer will be set to work offline
I have slackware 7.0, and set my printer up using the setup script that came
with apsfilter. Below are both my smb.conf file and my printcap file for
you to look at. I am having trouble locating all of the drivers needed to
have my laserjet4l ready for a network install, so ignore the ';' for now.
Any clue what is going on? I also have the free-ljet4 package, but I am not
sure how to use this in my filtering. If anyone has any suggestions, feel
free to email me.
Thanks for help in advance.
John
