# Version 1.0 13 January 1995
6
# modified from the original smbprint (bsd) script
8
# this script is a System 5 printer interface script. It
9
# uses the smbclient program to print the file to the specified smb-based
12
# To add this to your lp system, copy this file into your samba directory
13
# (the example here is /opt/samba), modify the server and service variables
14
# and then execute the following command (as root)
16
# lpadmin -punixprintername -v/dev/null -i/opt/samba/smbprint
18
# where unixprintername is the name that the printer will be known as
21
# the script smbprint will be copied into your printer administration
22
# directory (/usr/lib/lp or /etc/lp) as a new interface
23
# (interface/unixprintername)
24
# Then you have to enable unixprintername and accept unixprintername
26
# This script will then be called by the lp service to print the files
27
# This script will have 6 or more parameters passed to it by the lp service.
28
# The first five will contain details of the print job, who queued it etc,
29
# while parameters 6 onwards are a list of files to print. We just
30
# cat these at the samba client.
32
# Set these to the server and service you wish to print to
33
# In this example I have a WfWg PC called "lapland" that has a printer
34
# exported called "printer" with no password.
36
# clear out the unwanted parameters
37
shift;shift;shift;shift;shift
38
# now the argument list is just the files to print
45
# NOTE You may wish to add the line `echo translate' if you want automatic
46
# CR/LF translation when printing.
