Thanks Pablo for responding, but still no joy.
After hours of trying different things, I finally went in search of log

/var/log/samba depending, evidently, on how I had set things up at that
time. For example, from yesterday
You can point the printer in the lower part of the windows box, with the

I have set up a CUPS server on one of my Debian boxes, directly attached
via parallel port. I can print to it from a different Debian box on my
LAN, but not from a Windows box.
The Windows box does see the printer, and says the printer is setup
properly and sends jobs to the printer with no errors

I have a suspicion that windows no-longer requires samba for IPP printing, but
have yet to confirm this.

Indeed, there is no need for X in those case (or any server in general).
If the original poster needs a graphical app all he has to do is display
it on a remote box X display.

Hi all
Im want to set an old box (300Mhz 32meg RAM) up as a print server

Hi,
I try to build up a print server "printe" (192.168.1.3) for my little
local network based on Debian 1.3.1. Using lpd, magicfilter, and
gs-aladin (plus gsfonts), "wotan-e" (192.168.1.1) should be able to
print a PostScript file to "printe". Local printing on "printe" is fine,
and network serv
As far as I can tell, the lpd on my system isn't listening on TCP socket
515, which is what I would expect it to listen to from looking at
/etc/services. It's only listening to /dev/printer, if you give it the
"-l 515" argumnent when it starts, it'll listen. Someone more familiar
with the program w
I just happen to be working on a similar problem tonight. One thing that
appears to be needed is to stop and restart lpd (a kill -HUP does not do the
trick!) by going into /etc/init.d and issuing a
/lpd stop
then a
/lpd start
and changes to your /etc/printcap should then take effect.
I hav
For some reason my mailer chopped off the leading dots in the commands that I
tried to be so clear about by putting them on separate lines. They should be
like this: ./lpd stop and ./lpd start

So, if you "telnet localhost 515" on your system, does it get a connection?
That's what I was using to see if anything answered on the port.
Thanks
