Yes, it is exactly that problem. I added the port (lpr) through the printer setup and re-linked the printer (manually changed the port to match the new port) that did not have a port listed through the registry and it works fine (finally!!...thank you!!)
The /'s are messing up Win2k and it won't add a lpr port to the machine. Is there any potential fix for this problem? Would the enumports command in smb.conf help at all?
