I can't help you on that, and I seem to have lost the link to a page explaining how, but if you have any Apple devices (Macintosh, iPad, iPod or iPhones) on your network, be sure to set up your avahi-daemon to advertise the printers.

Hi , On Wed, Feb 23, 2011 at 17:00, Israel Shikler soft...@netvision.net.ilwrote: Hi List, Our goal is to use SAMBA on Redhat Linux as a print server. The server should allow users to browse the printers list, and to download printer drivers. Users should be authenticated against Active Directory Services . How do we set this configuration? What do you mean that you wish to use samba as a print server ? How the printers are connected to the print server and what is the need ? 1) if each client need to be a single admin for a signle printer this is one thing - 2) if each client need to be able to add /remove a printing job to some queue (on one or more printers) 3) some policy enabled printing (billing, max amount of pages / size / print jobs / account etc ...) Perhaps you need to take a look on CUPS setting and sharing a CUPS printer using SAMBA (is it the real request ?) http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/CUPS-printing.html Who are the clients ? Windows / Gnu machines ? P.s The authers of the cups hebrew translation and Lexmark hebrew modification should be on this list. ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
