Well, this is the entry out of my /etc/printcap using Mandrake 7.1 to a
'doze printer:
##PRINTTOOL3## SMB ljet2p 300x300 a4 {} LaserJet2p Default 1
lp:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
:mx#0:\
:sh:\
:lp=/dev/null:\
:af=/var/spool/lpd/lp/acct:\
:if=/var/spool/lpd/lp/filter:
and this is out of /var/spool/lpd/lp/.config
share='\\scribe\star'
hostip=
user=''
password=''
workgroup=''
Needless to say, I am running Samba, are you?
