Hey folks,
sorry I didn't quite follow the discussion :-(
did you try '-J' ?
in general this should result in something like:
[pcx1839] / $ echo test | lpr -Ptestp5
[pcx1839] / $ lpq
Printer: testp5@pcx1839 (printing disabled) (dest testp5@spoolc,spoola)
Queue: 2 printable jobs
Server: no server active
Status: job 'chbeyer@pcx1839+78' removed at 13:57:34.865
Rank Owner/ID Class Job Files Size
Time
1 root@pcx1839+273 A 273 (stdin) 5
13:02:13
[pcx1839] / $ echo test | lpr -J name -Ptestp5
[pcx1839] / $ lpq
Printer: testp5@pcx1839 (printing disabled) (dest testp5@spoolc,spoola)
Queue: 2 printable jobs
Server: no server active
Status: job 'chbeyer@pcx1839+78' removed at 13:57:34.865
Rank Owner/ID Class Job Files Size
Time
1 root@pcx1839+273 A 273 (stdin) 5
13:02:13
2 root@pcx1839+280 A 280 name 5
13:02:38
To use this with SAMBA try something like:
print command = /usr/spool/lp/bin/lpr -r -J"%J" -m%m -U%U -P%p
%s
Don't forget the '"' because filenames coming from windows tend to have
blanks in their names which will kill your 'print command'...
hope this helps (?)

YOU MUST BE A LIST MEMBER IN ORDER TO POST TO THE LPRNG MAILING LIST
The address you post from MUST be your subscription address
If you need help, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or lprng-requests
or lprng-digest-requests) with the word 'help' in the body. For the impatient,
to subscribe to a list with name LIST, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
with: | example:
subscribe LIST <mailaddr> | subscribe lprng-digest [EMAIL PROTECTED]
unsubscribe LIST <mailaddr> | unsubscribe lprng [EMAIL PROTECTED]
If you have major problems, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word
LPRNGLIST in the SUBJECT line.
