Further. I set log level to 3 and the entry :
konica. is not a valid printer name is very interesting. the dot after konica is nowhere in my config files. ######################################################################## I'm not a complete noob. I've setup numerous samba boxes and have never seen this before. It happened after moving to a new server. my [printers} share is identical to the old server, as well as the [global] cups/printing directives in smb.conf when accessing printers via unc I get "incorrect function" (I've gotten into the useful habit of connecting up my windows users to printers by simply doing [start] [run] \\server\printer [enter]. this does not work anymore) even though I can browse \\server for the printer and connect to it fine. Server is a PDC with ldap back end. Printers are using cups.
