I get something similar:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# locate z53
/var/spool/lpd/z53-outfiles
/var/spool/lpd/lexmarkz53
/var/spool/lexmark/z53.conf
/usr/bin/lexmarkz53
/usr/local/bin/lexmarkz53
/usr/local/lexmark/z53
/usr/local/lexmark/z53/z53
/usr/local/lexmark/z53/LGPL
/usr/local/lexmark/z53/rmlp
/usr/local/lexmark/z53/lxacphal.out
...

I can print just fine from the machine in question, it is printing to that printer through Samba that I really have a problem with.

This looks like you use cups, not lprng, so, I have no idea how much of what
I said will apply.


Maybe you haven't the software from lexmark.

Here is a part of what I see with:
locate z53
/mnt/hda4/usr/local/lexmark/z53
/mnt/hda4/usr/local/lexmark/z53/A4.xpm
/mnt/hda4/usr/local/lexmark/z53/A5.xpm
/mnt/hda4/usr/local/lexmark/z53/A6_Card.xpm
/mnt/hda4/usr/local/lexmark/z53/align.xpm
/mnt/hda4/usr/local/lexmark/z53/alignz53
/mnt/hda4/usr/local/lexmark/z53/B5.xpm
/mnt/hda4/usr/local/lexmark/z53/Banner.xpm
etc. etc.

By point to I mean the "if" (input filter) paramter in /etc/printcap,
which refers to the file z53.sh if you are using the lexmark supplied
drivers.

OK. Here is what works for me. As usual, your mileage may vary.
I assume you have installed the software for the lexmarkz53 on your
linux server. I assume you can print a test page. If you can't, likely
you are not printing the testpage to a raw queue. The testpage goes to a
raw queue while the real print jobs go to a filtered queue, in my setup.
I assume you know how to run the lexmark setup program which generates the
configuration file.

lexmark supplies print filters that work fine in linux to drive the z53.
I wrote a tutorial on print filters some time ago. I used this filter
as part of that writeup. Here is part of that tutorial.
============Start Tutorial=====================
There is a shell script called z53.sh. This is what your printcap file
should be pointing to.



I'm not sure I know what you mean by "points to".
