Hi all,

I'm using Samba 2.2.7a with CUPS printer driver in RH9. My linux printer can
be shared & print (remotely) successfully.
However, I'm unable to cancel print jobs, or pause them remotely (on a
Win2000/XP PC).

Is there something missed in the smb.conf, or extra-settings needed for CUPS
(Permissions???). Actually, I'm very new to CUPS so please specify in detail
if I have to config it.

Here's the SMB settings for the shared printer:
############################################
[global]
   printcap name = /etc/printcap
   load printers = yes
   printing = cups

[printers]
   comment = All Printers
   path = /var/spool/samba
   guest ok = yes
   writable = no
   printable = yes
   public = yes
   browseable = yes

   lpq command = lpstat -o %p
   lprm command = cancel %p-%j
   print command = lpr -P %p -o raw %s -r
   use client driver = yes
############################################

Thank you v.much!!
