Hello, I installed smbprint to be able to print to a printer attached to a windows pc. However it doens't work Anybody an idea what I did wrong. I found some doc's on the net. http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba/chapter/book/ch07_02.html and http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/SMB-HOWTO-10.html First I installed the package printtool. Apparantly smbprint was installed in the directory /usr/share/printtool/smbprint so I make a symbolic link in /usr/bin. Next I added these lines to the /etc/printcap file # printer on Koersk windows pc via smbprint lp:\ :cm=HP 895 Cxi on windows:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\ :mx#0:\ :sh:\ :if=/usr/bin/smbprint: I then shared the printer on the windows machine as 'HP895' I made a file .config in the /var/spool/lpd/lp directory contents of the file is: server = Koersk service = HP895 password = "" I restarted the samba services en tried to print but nada. Did I forget something Where can I find errors? I checke /var/log/lp-errs and lpr.log but nothing relevant.
