Hey,
I'm trying to set up a Samba printer in Debian linux. The printer is being shared by a computer running windows vista.
Below is some of the information I've gotten in the process.
Sharing seems to be working, the printer seems to be detected and authenticating (I've tried invalid values and the utility I'm using to set things up says it cannot verify when I use invalid values, but with things as they are it claims everything checks out)
When I go into CUPS it says it detects the printer and everything is working.
However, printing a test page causes the job to be immediately complete and nothing happens.
It seems that the job is getting lost somewhere in the process. Could it be a firewall issue? I feel like the right ports must be unblocked since I can query the computer and verify the printer, etc.
I have a laptop with vista which I installed a printer on and was able to print to that computer just fine. So it doesn't seem to be a Vista thing...
I'm really not sure what it could be.
Any ideas? / Is this the right place to ask?
Code:
Domain=[OFFICECOMPUTER] OS=[Windows Vista (TM) Home Premium 6000] Server=[Windows Vista (TM) Home Premium 6.0]
