Please configure your samba environment if
you haven't already done so. To do so edit
/usr/local/etc/smb.conf
You can then add a new printer to CUPS.
smbspool(8) manpage describes device URI
format. In most cases (latest samba 2.x
and samba 3.x), it's something like this:
smb://username:password@server/printer
smb://username:password@workgroup/server/printer
But a CUPS article describes another syntax,
so beware.

Combine print/cups-base, print/cups-client and print/cups-image into
print/cups and update it to 2.1.3. Also remove print/cups-pstoraster,
improve print/cups-filters, print/foomatic-* and update print/hplip to
3.16.2.
Long description:
First some background. When you hand a file to cups it sets up a chain of
filter programs that converts the file to something a printer understands.
Each filter has a cost associated with it and cups tries to find the
cheapest chain. Costs used to be configured in such a way that files were
first converted to PostScript. This could then be manipulated further (e.g.
putting multiple pages on one sheet) before finally being sent to a
PostScript printer or another filter like pstoraster which produces a raster
format understood by non-PostScript printer drivers. Nowadays most filters (Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above ) |
