Dears,
I was trying to setup a Printer server using Cups and an HP desk-jet connected via USB on my Tumbleweed.
I wonder send printing jobs from another computer sharing the same local network which runs Windows 10.
Communication between Windows and Cups over LAN has been verified and it works.
If I print a test page from Cups web-page accessing it by the Windows pc browser, it works.
The problem is that I cannot print nothing using the Windows spool despite the network shared printer being available and apparently all details being accessible from Windows.
I've not found so far much documentation in regard so I'm asking if I'm ready to go with just CUPS or may be I need to install SAMBA as well in order Windows being able to print via CUPS?
Any brief and 100% working HOW-TO is appreciated.
I have a win10 box which has access to my networked hp printer and a usb connected to win10 shared hp printer were I can print from my linux boxes.
made the connections from a linux box using hplip-hpijs. And I do have smb/nmb running.
Hi Patrick! What happens if you disable SAMBA? Did you never tested? May be SAMBA is a requirement in order the specific printer spool of Windows could be able to communicate with CUPS (?).
