samba and vista computers
Now that I have my nice new HP OfficeJet 5610 printer here, I'm trying to print to it remotely (it's connected to my Vista Home Premium computer). smbclient doesn't seen to want to co-operate. smbclient in free(): error: junk pointer, too high to make sense Abort trap: 6 (core dumped) I've got samba-3.0.23c_2,1 samba-libsmbclient-3.0.23c installed. Trying to use CUPS and APSFILTER. Not having any luck :-( Any suggestions? -gerry ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

You might be better served by checking out an MS News forum regarding this problem. I have often gotten better results regarding the use of MS products with non-MS products from there. Oh no, Vista Home Premium is fine for basic home networks. After searching samba.org, I believe issues with Vista and Vista printer sharing are 'improved upon' in later releases, especially samba-3.0.25 (and we are at 3.0.23). Since I can see the shares on the Xp box just fine, but can't see anything on the Vista box, I think I'll likely end up waiting for a newer release of Samba and trying again then. -gerry ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The latest version available is 3.0.24, and it's recommended because there was a format string error of some kind in =3.0.23d. Ok, so I've updated my ports tree on my FreeBSD 6.2R system. I have managed to install the latest SAMBA3 port and I can now use smbclient to view the shares on my Vista computer. I can even send print jobs over to it, but on the Vista box, all I get is ERROR in the queue. If I go here: http://hplip.sourceforge.net/supported_devices/inkjet_aio.html it says sure, HPLIP 0.9.5 supports the HP OfficeJet 5610. I got there from here: http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-OfficeJet_5610 I don't see HPLIP anywhere in ASPFILTER. Now I'm lost again. Mind you, I'm sure it said HPIJS was the best driver to choose, but it comes up with error messages in the print queue on the Vista box. Been up all night trying to figure this out. Time for bed. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Since I am soon due to replace both of my print cartridges in the Lexmark, I figure I could just as easily buy the HP printer instead, but I thought I would run this model by the list members to see if it's compatible with FreeBSD, likely through CUPS? Anybody know off hand? Thanks! -gerry Try this site: http://openprinting.org/printer_list.cgi Just type in your printer info. and see how compatible it is. This is how I make my choice on the HP photosmart 7660 Amazing! Exactly what I was looking for. This printer will work just fine then, using the HPIJS driver. Awesome!
