I had the same problem, the final part of the solution was that something needed setting up to accept raw type data from the Windows machine. Here is my working /etc/smb.conf fragment for the printer [E740] comment = Linux Epson 740 path = /var/spool/lp read only = No guest ok = Yes printable = Yes printing = cups print command = cupsdoprint -P'%p' -oraw %s lpq command = lpq.cups -P'%p' lprm command = lprm.cups -P'%p' %j printer name = E740 use client driver = Yes Permissions on the spool path at the server drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 4096 Dec 8 13:17 /var/spool/lp I also added user nobody to the lp group. I hope this partial set of hints is some kind of help! - -Andy -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/33q6jKeDCxMJCTIRAsnKAKCKt5gK45wTbUu7prfn77+8iAQDRwCgg2yU aEFvZmYZT/jIJ9/nbegS+cI= =sVTa -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
