Hi,

I dont understand your English. Maybe someone can help you to write a more understandable english.

 anyway lets  try to  state   the basics:

1)    The Sun Ray DTU  on its own  can not  do any printing.

2)  Its applications  that can do the printing.

3)   Applications   run   in a server    NOT  in the  sunray.

4) Applications running IN the windows 2003 server can print to printers configured in the Windows Server.

5 ) Appliactions running IN the Windows 2003 server can print to a printer defined with the "-r:printer " parameter on the uttsc commandline.
    THIS printer  needs  to be configured IN the  UNIX/LINUX  server.

6) Applications running on the Solaris/LINUX server can print to printers configured on the SOlaris/Linux server.

7) Appliactions running on Solaris/linux server can print to printers configured on Windows2003 provided that you do set up the LPD printservice in Windows 2003 ( this is a standard MS windows printserver function ) and that you configure a Remote LPD printer from solaris/linux.

This should also be possible with IPP ( Internet Printing Protocol ) although I have not yet configured this soultion.

8) A printer configured on solaris/linux is avalilable to the users that you specify in the printservers authorisation mechanism. CUPS and Solaris Printservers are different and their permission structure is differing. If you allow utku-nnn kiosk users to use a printer they will be able to.


9 ) On Solaris you can attach a postscript printer with USB interface to the Sun Ray . I dont know if this feature works on Linux.

Hi Joerg.

I don't understand how a thin client Sun (without storage) can use a network 
printer
visible to a WS2003 server (for visibile I mean that there are installed
the correct network printer driver on the server but network printers are not 
installed).

In fact if I try to connect to the Windows desktop (I don't specify printers as arguments 
with the option "-r") how is possible find the printers in the kiosk session? 
The drivers are installed only in the Windows 2003 server but not in the DTU Sun.

In this moment I don't see network printers inside the kiosk session.

For printers visible to the Windows server, you don't need any uttsc option and you don't need a print queue on the SRSS server.

You do need to configure the printer on the Windows server.

and I've added in the uttsc form inside SunRay GUI this line:

-r disk:M=/tmp/SUNWut/mnt/$USER printer:test-sunray="Olivetti d-Copia 400 KX" -O IP_Windows2003


Just do
   -r disk:M=/tmp/SUNWut/mnt/$USER -O IP_Windows2003
to use network printers.
