This may be a second post of this problem, but I didn't get a single reply
to my first post so maybe it didn't get posted for some reason.
I am trying to print to a samba shared printer with linux, but am having a
print filter problem. I have set up a queue "test2" to write to the
share "test."
The printer "test" works fine locally with lpr -Ptest filetoprint and works fine with
the
command below ON THE COMMAND LINE:
cat FileToPrint | enscript -Z -p - | smbclient //hammer2/test -N "-c print - "
However, the command in a print filter:
enscript -Z -p - | smbclient //hammer2/test -N "-c print - "
fails with a JABORT message in the status file when run by lpd.
Removing the smbclient command allows the filter to function normally.
This filter script works when called from the command line:
cat FileToPrint | /var/spool/lpd/test2/filter.
Any insight appreciated.
Joel
