Unfortunately the printers in question are directly connected to some NT servers and do not have JetDirect cards, so there is no direct printing to the IP address. www.samba.org didn't have anything that I could find on the subject, which is why I decided to submit the question to the mailing list. Linux has the utility called smbprint, but I haven't found a similar utility in the ports collection. Probably because I'm sure you can print without having to have that utility. > -----Original Message----- > From: Jeroen Ruigrok/Asmodai [SMTP:asmodai@wxs.nl] > Sent: Wednesday, April 07, 1999 4:46 PM > To: Milliken, Scott > Cc: questions@freebsd.org > Subject: RE: SMB Printing > > On 07-Apr-99 Milliken, Scott wrote: > > I'm trying to figure out just how to put an entry in /etc/printcap > > so that I can print to a Samba shared printer. > > If there is an FAQ that covers this, I'd certainly like to know where. > > I've checked the FreeBSD handbook and the www.freebsd.org web pages to > no > > avail. > > Dumb suggestion mayhaps, but have ye tried the obvious at www.samba.org? > > Other thought that hit me, dunno if I understood yer situation correctly, > would be to just print using IP to the printer.
