Hi all,
yesterday I began to dive to linux printing, and I feel
a bit lost in it.
I need help.
First I've inslalled samba* and cups* debs to my woody box.
I tried to share some folders with samba and it worked fine.
Then I read docs on cups.org and did
elfie:/home/elf# lpinfo -v
network socket
network http
network ipp
network lpd
direct parallel:/dev/lp0
serial serial:/dev/ttyS0?baud=115200
serial serial:/dev/ttyS1?baud=115200
serial serial:/dev/ttyS2?baud=115200
serial serial:/dev/ttyS3?baud=115200
network smb
well, my printer Epson LQ 100+ ESC/P2 is found on /dev/lp0
then
/usr/sbin/lpadmin -p EpsonLQ -E -v parallel:/dev/lp0 -m epson24.ppd
ok, passed
lpr sometextfile.txt
whouu, it's printing, but the resolution is terrible.
Wanted to edit some config, but I cant find any. Where are
stored information about my printer??? Which file I have to edit?
Then I tried gtkpl, great, I can set good resolution, but it's applied
only on files printed just from gtkpl. How can I solve this?
Finaly, on cups.org i find how to make cups and samba work together.
I added this lines to my smb.conf
printing = cups
printcap name = cups
load printers = yes
I ran testparm, it passed (log is attached)
I tried smbclient
elfie:/home/elf# smbclient -U% -L localhost
added interface ip=147.32.115.100 bcast=147.32.115.127 nmask=255.255.255.224
Domain=[ELFNET] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.2.2debian-2]

Ooops, where is my shared printer? :-(
Please help me.
