Hello,
I have a Linux box with 2 printers attached and 1 scanner. One printer = connects with LPT1, the other with USB and the scanner is USB also. I want to share all these within my local network. For that, I installed = Samba. When I start the Linux box, the parallel printer starts to print = rubbish. I supposed that was a problem with the printer itself, but I = switched on alone without the printer connection and was Ok. The thing = starts when starts the Linux. I observed that there is a daemon, lpd, = that is started with Linux. I killed it from the command line, but the = printer continues to print rubbish. I tried to share them within the LAN I have. It is composed of the Linux = box and 2 Windows machines. The 2 printers are 'seen' by the two Windows = machines, but when I install the drivers for them a message appears: = "Access denied". I copy the smb.conf file I have here: [global] encrypt passwords =3D yes workgroup =3D WORKGROUP [HPLaserJ] printable =3D yes print command =3D /usr/bin/lpr -r %s printer =3D /dev/lp0 printing =3D BSD read only =3D yes guest ok =3D yes =20 [Stylus740] printable =3D yes print command =3D /usr/bin/lpr -r %s printer =3D /dev/usb/lp0 printing =3D BSD read only =3D yes guest ok =3D yes [test] Comment =3D Testeo de Samba path =3D /hda3 valid users =3D juan jose read only =3D no The printers are HP LaserJet 1100 (parallel) and Epson Stylus Color 740I = (USB). The scanner is an HP ScanJet 2200c (USB). I have already installed the respective drivers in the Windows machines. Maybe I have to put a different configuration in smb.conf. I will wait your answers.
