Hi Jose, I have a Debian/GNU Slink serving as a print server here without problems. I'm sending relevant portions of my smb.conf and printcap so you can examine. An observation: I installed the potato version of samba and used swat to configure it. My clients are WFWG and Win9x. I have magicfilter installed and it takes care of everything. I don't worry if clients are printing Word,Excel,Or_Everything_Else docs.
