Hello,

I've encountered a problem printing to a windows print share and am
uncertain how to go about resolving my problem. From what I've been able to
tell, the problem lies in samba.

I've got a fedora 13 box with samba installed and running on it. My goal is
to print to a windows print share.

I am able to use smbclient to query the print server and get a list of
shares and service types.

[bob(a)myhost ~]$ smbclient -L GP300-405PCL
Enter bob's password:

I can successfully create the printer through the fedora print configuration
tool (system-config-printer) or through lpadmin. The printer is an Cannon
imageRunner 330s, and I'm using the appropriate .ppd I obtained from
linuxprinting.org.

example adding the printer: 'sudo lpadmin -p winprinter -v
smb://GP300-405PCL/Direct -P Canon-imageRunner_330s-hpijs-pcl5e.ppd'

When I attempt to print a test page through the GUI print manager, I get an
error "Error Writing Spool: ERRSRV - 22"

When reviewing the CUPS logs, the logs indicate a problem with the backend,
smbspool. That is the source of the ERRSRV 22 error code.

I've tried manually sending a postscript file to the printer using the
smbclient and have not has success with that as well.

I have included the debug information with -d4, but -d10 includes additional
information when I send the print command.

smbclient '\\GP300-405PCL\Print' -d4 -U guest

Does anyone have any idea what is going on with the print server? I wasn't
able to find any references to ERRSRV 22 or cli_push in searching forums and
mailing lists.
