Dos Printing from XP -> Cups -> Samsung ML-1740
Hi Guys,
I have an interesting question for ya's. Now I have a working CUPS (Ver 1.1.23-10sarge) setup on Debian Sarge and Samba (Ver 3.0.14a-3sarge). I can print from the cups management page (test prints) I can print from windows. But when I set up an lpt port using net use lpt1 \\server\samsung /persistent:no The document prints to the cups and completes: Quote:
I'm so far stumped! Anyone else tried doing something like this? |
Hello,
the dos-box doesn't use the printer driver. Share the Printer on the XP-box and "net use lpt1: \\xp-box-name\printer-share" |
I'll give that a whirl, thought i'd tried that, but alas my brain was not so good @ 4am the other morning.
Thanks, will respond with an update if i'm successful :) |
Thanks (I have the same problem) - but when I do a:
net use lpt1: \\pcname\printername it accepts it, but when I try to print with dir > lpt1: it gives "invalid parameter" :( stupid XP.. -t |
Unfortunately I never found a resolution to the problem... (well I did but it wasn't fixing the software.. that story after more beer :P )
