Witec Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 I have samba installed and working, i can access the shares in my windowsXP PRO server and see the printer shares. i installed my printer with cups http://localhost:631 and when asked Device i choose windows printer via SAMBA and then i write URI: smb://user:pass@workgroup/server/sharename (ofcourse i write my own user, pass etc. settings instead of these) then i choose manufacturer model etc.... It won't print anything though. Somethimes Printer state shows: "Unable to connect to SAMBA host, will retry in 60 seconds...ERROR: SMB tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED" sometimes it says: processing, accepting jobs. "Printing page 1, 5%" (there is a testpage in queue) Need to change something in smb.conf? could i be writing something wrong in URI (lowercase uppercase)? Ideas?
