[NTLUG:Discuss] problems printint y smaba

[Chris Cox]

You want to print from windows to a "raw" printer
device.  Remember the driver is in Windows... it
will take care of formatting the output.  Setup
the printer directly in Windows as a 840C... not
postscript.  Then let it print to the raw
printer in Linux.

Usually, apsfilter configures a *-raw device
in your /etc/printcap.  Look for it.  That's
the one you want to expose via Samba.

Hope this helps,
Chris
