Hi All, I've got a very nicely working samba server with cups as the backend. i also have a colour printer on which I must do billing every month.
i've done a test page or two and the username comes though to the colour printer which is good. problem i had is the jobname in the logs is smbprn_xxxxxxxx_xx (numbers) which is the samba job name. if joe bloggs complains and says he didn't print that many jobs, we've no way of saying here's what you printed with samba because it's not recognizable to them. sad. Does anybody know anything about how the jobname gets crunched etc and can it be logged to the samba log file somehow in the worst case. this would work if there is no way samba/cups can pass though the original name of the printjob. On a side note, i've got a pdf printer setup with samba/cups and have modified the pdf script that writes the pdf to dig out the %%Title from the postscript file and make that the ending .pdf file. but obviously i can't do that with the lpd because it's not a text script. Anyone got some brilliant ideas? thanks Matthew -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
