Here's the way I do it (from smb.conf): print command = /usr/common/LPRng/bin/lpr -P%p -CSOURCE=SAMBA,REMOTEIP=%I -r %s
The 'class' argument can be picked up by anything which has access to the 'control file'. I have several possible 'sources' and so must include an indication of what generated the 'lpr' command. -Rick Dan Finch wrote: > > This is more of a samba question but I thought I would see if someone here > might know how to do this.
