you should define this printer by default in cups with lpadmin -D printername (if IIRC, might be -d). That's more of a cups question. Then lpr will behave as you expect and send the jobs to this printer. but I can't figure out why you're using the smb backend instead of the native cups protocol (which wouldn't require setting up a driver on the client) between the 2 nix boxes... -- *********************************************** [EMAIL PROTECTED] OpenPGP public key: http://www.amakuru.net/dmorel.asc 28192ef126bc871757cb7d97f4a44536
