Hi,

I'm using some kind of pseudo printer on our samba server to automatically 
produce PDF files. The smb.conf looks like this (the samba server is 
successfully conteced to an ADS):

[global]
        workgroup = ADS
        netbios name = pc103.ads.local
        realm = ADS.LOCAL
        security = ADS
        password server = win2ksrv.ads.local
        log level = 2
        winbind separator = +
        template homedir = /home/%U
        idmap uid = 10000-20000
        idmap gid = 10000-20000
        winbind enum users = yes
        winbind enum groups = yes
        winbind enable local accounts = yes
        template shell = /bin/bash
        log file = /var/log/samba/log.smb.%U
        max log size = 500
        printing = cups
        printcap name = cups
        cups options = raw

[pdfprinter]
        comment = Minolta Color PageWorks/Pro Ps
        path = /samba/pdfprinter
        print command = /samba/pdfprinter/pdfscript "%s" 
        printable = yes
        public = yes
        writeable = yes

[printers]
   comment = All Printers
   load printers = yes
   browseable = no
   printable = yes
   public = yes
   read only = yes
   create mode = 0700
   directory = /tmp

My problem is, that the script doesn't produce any PDF file. In the logfile I 
find the following message:

[2005/03/29 19:31:44, 0] printing/print_cups.c:cups_queue_get(900)
  Unable to get jobs for ipp://localhost/printers/pdfprinter - 
client-error-not-found

Okay, this is an error from cups, but what has cups to do with it? I don't 
want to use cups for printing, but a simple script.
I have used this construction already about two years ago with older versions 
of samba and cups and I of course compared the configuration files and all 
file/dir permissions.
Samba is version samba-3.0.9-2.3, cups is version cups-1.1.21-5.6, the system 
is SuSE 9.2.
Do I really have to set up some kind of dummy printer to use a script as a 
printer in samba?

Thanks for any help,

Stefan
