But, in response to: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2003-October/022680.html the above entry, I've been able to successfully install & run cups on FreeBSD 4.9. But I did not use any o-matic stuff from linuxprinting.org. Initially, I could not add an Epson Stylus C84 to my lpt0 port. But, I added my IP addresses to the and sections like: Allow From 192.168.1.141 etc. I chose the Epson Stylus C82, CUPS + Gimp-print v 4.2.5 driver. After having added all my local IP addresses to be allowed, and after restarting cupsd, I could successfully add the printer to lpt0 parallel. And printing works great from each of the KDE3 apps I tried. My problem now is how to get cups, samba 2.2.8a, and my Win98 pc cooperating. The printer is attached to FreeBSD. From Win98 I can map a network drive (in explorer) and use it. If I open the Add Printer Wizard, I can browse my printer share (but only after having mapped a network drive with user/ password auth). But Win98 chokes at the end with the following error message: "The printer could not be installed. Quit all programs, restart Windows, and then try again. If the problem persists, contact your system administrator. [OK]" at log level = 3, I really can't decipher if the problem is Samba or Win98.. There's nothing in any of the log files to suggest Samba had a problem. When I browse my printer share I can see the communication in the log file.. My smb.conf: [global] # logging level log level = 3 # workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name, eg: REDHAT4 workgroup = MANDK # server string is the equivalent of the NT Description field server string = Cadence # This option is important for security.
