hi ya
on the linux box with the local printer...
( call it lpserver )
#
# look for sd, lp and some kind of "input filter"(if)
#
lp|phaser|:\
:sh:\
:ml=0:\
:mx=0:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/phaser:\
-->> :lp=/dev/lp0:\
:lpd_bounce=true:\
:if=/usr/share/printconf/mf_wrapper:
-- dont forget to stop and start the lpd
-- what is the output of "lpc status"
-- did it print a file ??
lpr -Phaser /etc/printcap
your printcap on the remote linux box looks fine..
( call it lpclient )

lpr -Pphaser /etc/printcap
for your linux printer server... lets make it lpserver...that windoze is
trying to connect to it...
lpserver# vi /etc/samba/smb.conf
...
encrypt passwords = yes
smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd
...
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
path = /opt/home
browseable = no
writable = yes
....
# NOTE: If you have a BSD-style print system there is no need to
# specifically define each individual printer
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = no
# Set public = yes to allow user 'guest account' to print
guest ok = no
printable = yes
print command = /usr/bin/lpr -r %s ; rm %s
#
# name of the samba'ized printer
#
printer = xerox
printing = BSD
read only = yes
-- restart samba
-- what is the output of "testprns xerox /etc/printcap"
=== in order for Windozed to see the "xerox" printer connected
=== to lpserver in their network neighborhood... you need to
=== define your samba passwd
== ( try to make it different from your ssh login and
== your windoze login
===
=== lpserver# cd /etc/samba ; smbpasswd <you>
===
now fire up MS word ... and print a couple sentences to the pritner...
and than do "Add (network) Printer" to your list of printers
( it should have its own printer drivers )
