Hy guys!
I am about to loose my sanity. I have a notebook, which I
carry between work and home. At home I have a W2k Workstation
which shares a HP840c printer. This one works like a charme.
No porblems.
At work however, I have a W2k machine sharing a Brother
HL1030. I have no chance of printing on this printer. All the
other workstations (W2k) are able to print on it. I double
The Brother 1030 is just a Windows GDI printer! No chance to print with
anything else than Windows as the Windows driver has to generate the pages.
checked share settings, username, passwords... you name it.
I can connect to the printer via smbclient manually by doing:
smbclient //192.168.21.103/hl1030 -P -U klaus
But when I try to configure the printer with the gnome gui
thing, I always get the error: unable to connect to samba
host, retryin in 60 seconds...
I did set the logging of cups to debug, and attached the
/var/log/cups/error_log as a gzipped file to this eMail.
I hope somebody has some ideas.....
Thanks in advance,
Klaus
Alexander
