I managed to fix my printer problem today. All I had to do was change the
path from what it was:
path = /var/spool/lpd/printer_name
to:
path = /var/spool/samba
You can see my partial old and new smb.conf files below. Basically I was
pointing directly to the real print spool, rather than the samba spool. It
so easy for me to over look these little details.
Thanks to those of you who responded and/or considered my message. The
replies here got me to think about the problem in a little different way,
and I figured it out. I was just going around in circles by myself.
