I am looking for an documentation about
installing the SambaFax printer under Debian with Samba and Cups supported.
It seems that the URL http://www.purpel3.nl/sambafax/ is not longer online
and all my tries and tests to bring SambaFax online failed. If I try to
connect the printer under Windows XP (\\faxserver\SambaFax) I get the Message
"Connection refused".
If I do connect the printer with the
cups URL (e.g. http://faxserver:631/printers/SambaFax) and an Apple PS
driver it works. But whenI try to send a fax job with the right tag that
is used for faxing with SambaFax (Fax-Nr : ddd-ddddddd), I get an failure
notice via E-Mail:
The faxnumber is not recognized in your fax of
Tue Sep 11 11:37:42 CEST 2007
The faxnumber is recognised via this text:
Fax-Nr : ddd-ddddddd
No spaces or characters are allowed between the digits, just a -
Please correct and retry
Like I've said, my Document had the
right tag.
The driver used for the Printer is Apple
LaserWriter 12/640 PS.
My Samba Config looks like this:
<snip>
# Printers (SambaFax)
load printers = yes
printcap name = cups
printing = cups
use client driver = yes
#print command = lp -d%p -oraw %s; rm
%s
#lpq command = lpstat -o%p
#lprm command = cancel %p-%j
#queuepause command = disable %p
#queueresume command = enable %p
(...)
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/cups
print command = /usr/lib/cups/backend/sambafax
printer = SambaFax
browseable = yes
public = yes
printable = yes
guest ok = yes
writeable = yes
printable = yes
write list = @ntusers
read list = @ntusers
printer admin = @ntadmins
</snap>
Maybe someone of the Mailinglist can
give me some help in this case ?
