Hi Chris, Trying to print using gedit from sudo does not work either, it presents same error as from my user. The printer driver is: Epson Stylus Photo 830U - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.2.0-rc1
I agree that it looks like samba client is not working properly, but what really puzzles me is that it was working well when I was using Ubuntu 8.04, but it has started to fail after upgrading to 8.10, and the fact that for some applications it works well (Open Office, Thunderbird, and Opera), but not for others (gedit, Firefox, eclipse). I have just checked the setup for the printing against document http://www.swerdna.net.au/linhowtosambaprint.html and the only difference was in the URI; I was using smb://workgroup/HD-HLAN83B/lp and I changed it to smb://workgroup/username:passw...@hd-hlan83b/lp But there is no change of behaviour, it still has problems with gedit, firefox and eclipse, working with the others mentioned before. The reason I am using the Buffalo Link Station for sharing the printer, is hat it is a stand alone networked hard drive with printer sharing facilities that I bought for this purposes, and the rest of the computers at home (one Ubuntu 8.04 and a Windows XP laptop) are accessing it without any problem. So I would prefer to keep using it. Is there any other document about the samba settings that could help me to check if with the changes to CIFS (that I seem to remember were mentioned in the release notes) I should change any configuration?
