The spoolss print job file open code-path has changed recently, looking at print_spool_open() it looks like the job file is created without taking the print jobid into account. Please raise a bug with your logs attached. Cheers, David -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba

The samba printer spool directory is owned by the lpd user and the users group. I got the smb.conf printing commands from the LPRng docs. > 3.

Are you using the Windows native drivers? If so, update them to more current drivers from HP. I'm using either NT/Win2k v4.3.2.38 or Win2k/XP v02.12.02 of the PCL 5E drivers. The MS-Supplied HP LJ4 drivers (and Lexmark Optra S and more...) have a host of problems. Including missing characters, graphics, etc. 2. Run testparm on your Samba box to see/fix problems in your setup. Directory rights on the lprng or samba spool dirs may cause the "Access Denied" errors. Look at the LPRng How-To for the correct syntax for the smb.conf entries. Run checkpc -V -f to see/fix problems in the lprng setup. 3. If you're using the print$ share to distribute your drivers, adding guest ok=yes may clear up the "Access Denied" errors. Be sure that you have "guest account" and "Map to Guest" configured in smb.conf. Use SWAT to get to the smb.conf readme for more info.

I have printing = lprng print command = /usr/bin/lpr -P%p -l -r %s I just added the -l to see if it would fix my problem, it made no difference at all.
