[WBEL-users] cups / samba printing issues

[Daniel J. Summers]

Good evening.

I'm having some problems getting networked printing working.  I have a 
computer running Windows XP Professional, with a shared HP DeskJet 
3520.  The printer is shared (wide-open, always available), and the 
computer is part of the SUMMERS workgroup.

On my WBEL box, I'm using the hpijs driver, using it as an HP DeskJet 
3420 model (which is, what I gathered from 'net research, what you're 
supposed to do).  I've configured the appropriate machine, share, 
workgroup, user, and password settings within cups.  Once I complete the 
configuration, I click the menu item to print a cups test page.  On the 
WXP box, I see the job (3.70 MB, completely spooled), but it hangs on 
the first 64 KB chunk it tries to send to the printer.

This printer works locally on the WXP box, and when I boot my WBEL box 
to WXP, it works networked as well.  It seems like there's no permission 
problem, but that maybe the job is being created in a way that the 
printer doesn't understand.  Does anyone have any ideas on what I might 
have misconfigured?
