Samba Printing


I have a problem printing with samba 3 from windows XP, here my config file, i am using Clark Connect 2.1 as my OS.



[global]
;basic server settings
workgroup = HOME
server string = SambaServer
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=8192 SO_RCVBUF=8192 wins support = yes

;PDC and master browser settings
os level = 64
preferred master = yes
local master = yes
domain master = yes
domain logons = yes

;security and logging settings
security = user
encrypt passwords = yes

;user profiles and home directory
logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U
logon script = netlogon.bat

# ==== shares ====

[homes]
comment = Home Directories
browseable = no
writeable = yes

[profiles]
path = /home/samba/profiles
profile acls = yes
writable = yes
browseable = no
guest ok = yes

[netlogon]
comment = Network Logon Service
path = /home/samba/netlogon
guest ok = yes
writable = no
share modes = no

[tmp]
comment = Temporary file space
path = /tmp
read only = no
public = yes

[samsung]
printable = yes
print command = /usr/bin/lpr -P%p -r %s
printer = samsung-laser
printing = BSD
path = /var/spool/cups/tmp

[tmp2]
comment = temp 2
path = /var/spool/cups/tmp
read only = no
public = yes

when i print something from the windows box, i see it in the completed documents when i look at the cups server, when i look at the temp file that samba transfers, all i see is a bunch of garbage, a 2kb file shows up as a 40kb file in the temp directory, printing from linux works fine, what could be wrong?

I'm not real familiar with Samba but you may have to change this line to print to cups

print command = /usr/bin/lpr -P%p -r %s
