Yes I am using Samba that comes with Fedora.
Hmmm. Those error messages (particularly the "STACK:" message) usually
indicate some problem with Postscript output or interpretation. My
guess is
that the Windows driver is handling the postscript incorrectly.
Could you send the appropriate bit of /etc/samba/smb.conf and also
which driver >on the Windows side is being used?
The driver on the Windows side is Digital DEClaser 1152 43 fonts.
Here is a snippet from the smb.conf file.
[DECLaser]
path = /tmp
printer admin = ryh
guest ok = Yes
printable = Yes
printing = cups
use client driver = Yes
default devmode = Yes
Either delete the "use client driver = Yes" line or set it to
"use clent driver = No". I quote from the smb.conf man page:
"...
If this parameter is enabled for a printer, then any attempt to
open the printer with the PRINTER_ACCESS_ADMINISTER right is
mapped to PRINTER_ACCESS_USE instead. Thus allowing the Open-
PrinterEx() call to succeed. This parameter MUST not be enabled
on a print share which has a valid print driver installed on the
Samba server."
The last sentence is the important bit. If you have a valid driver
on the Linux system that talks to the printer correctly, you MUST NOT
have "user client driver" enabled.
