Hi All.
I'm new to this list, and I've checked the archives and tried all the
suggestions I've found, but I am still unable to printfrom either of my two
Win98 boxen.
My Mandrake 9 machine has most of the packages installed but none are upgraded
yet. I'm using
kernel 2.4.19.16mdk
samba 2.2.6-1.0pre2.2mdk
CUPS 1.1.16-0.4mdk
The network and firewall functions - all machines can use the internet
connection on the Linux box - but pings to the linux box fail. I don't know
if it's related, I doubt it, but just in case...
I've created smb.conf based on a message in November by Anne Wilson, and my
cupsd.conf is based on several messages found here and elsewhere. I can
provide them if you like.
The error I get is in cups/error-log. It states it is "unable to convert file
0 to printable format" even though a raw file is sent and
application/octet-stream is enabled in both mime.* files.
Any thoughts? Should I consider PDQ or find and install some other lp daemon?
If so, what print system should I define in Samba?
Thanks in advance,
Larry
