   3 # This script is an input filter for printcap printing on a unix machine. It
   4 # uses the smbclient program to print the file to the specified smb-based
   5 # server and service.
   6 # For example you could have a printcap entry like this
   7 #
   8 # smb:lp=/dev/null:sd=/usr/spool/smb:sh:if=/usr/local/samba/smbprint
   9 #
  10 # which would create a unix printer called "smb" that will print via this
  11 # script. You will need to create the spool directory /usr/spool/smb with
  12 # appropriate permissions and ownerships for your system.
  13
  14 # Set these to the server and service you wish to print to
  15 # In this example I have a WfWg PC called "lapland" that has a printer
  16 # exported called "printer" with no password.
  17
  18 #
  19 # Script further altered by hamiltom@ecnz.co.nz (Michael Hamilton)
  20 # so that the server, service, and password can be read from
  21 # a /usr/var/spool/lpd/PRINTNAME/.config file.
  22 #
  23 # Script further modified by Richard Sharpe to fix some things.
  24 # Get rid of the -x on the first line, and add parameters
  25 #
  26 #    -t  now causes translate to be used when sending files
  27 #
  28 # In order for this to work the /etc/printcap entry must include an
  29 # accounting file (af=...):
  30 #
  31 #   cdcolour:\
  32 #       :cm=CD IBM Colorjet on 6th:\
  33 #       :sd=/var/spool/lpd/cdcolour:\
  34 #       :af=/var/spool/lpd/cdcolour/acct:\
  35 #       :if=/usr/local/etc/smbprint:\
  36 #       :mx=0:\
  37 #       :lp=/dev/null:
  38 #
  39 # The /usr/var/spool/lpd/PRINTNAME/.config file should contain:
  40 #   server=PC_SERVER
  41 #   service=PR_SHARENAME
  42 #   password="password"
  43 #
  44 # E.g.
  45 #   server=PAULS_PC
  46 #   service=CJET_371
  47 #   password=""
  48

  50 # Debugging log file, change to /dev/null if you like.
  51 #
  52 logfile=/tmp/smb-print.log
  53 # logfile=/dev/null
  54
  55
  56 #
  57 # The last parameter to the filter is the accounting file name.
  58 #   Extract the directory name from the file name.
  59 #   Concat this with /.config to get the config file.
