i am using this command line from a linux client to try to print to my linux samba server with a shared printer, that is printing ok from windows clients.
the test page prints ok from this same linux host.
here is the command i am using:smbspool smb://printserver/neptuno/hp_670C 1 nobody 1 test
OK, I don't really understand why you need to do it, but here you go:
* Try with no arguments first:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:> smbspool network smb "Unknown" "Windows Printer via SAMBA"
* Try with one dummy-argument:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:> smbspool dummy
Usage: smbspool [DEVICE_URI] job-id user title copies options [file]
The DEVICE_URI environment variable can also contain the
destination printer:
smb://[username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/]server/printer* "Aa-haaaa..."
The command wants to use the DEVICE_URI environment variable, plus 5 or 6 arguments (5 if it gets input from stdin, 6 if the printjob is a file).
* Try this:
DEVICE_URI="smb://skydive:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/piper/hp_670C" 1111 skydive2 "An SMB Print Job" 2 "sides=two-sided-long-edge" /etc/samba/smb.conf
skydive - username
happylanding - password
cessnaclub - workgroupname
piper - servername
hp_670C - printersharename
1111 - job-ID (you may invent one)
skydive2 - user (you may invent one)
"An SMB Print Job" - job title (you may set one)
2 - number of requested copies
"sides=two-sided-long-edge" - print job options (you may set more, comma-separated,
if CUPS is the printing system underneath the Samba print server (*))
/etc/samba/smb.conf - the file you want to print(*) won't work against a Windows print server!
* Works for me!
where hp670c is the name of the printer as it is configured in the smb.conf and nobody the name of the user wich ii am not sure if it is right...
it connects to the print server but it does not print
any ideia?
No more than the above...
Cheers & happy printing! Kurt
