<para>This parameter may be used to override the
|
||
|
|
compiled-in default printcap name used by the server (usually <filename moreinfo="none">
|
||
|
|
/etc/printcap</filename>). See the discussion of the <link
|
||
|
|
linkend="PRINTERSSECT">[printers]</link> section above for reasons
|
||
|
|
why you might want to do this.</para>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<para>To use the CUPS printing interface set <command moreinfo="none">printcap name = cups
|
||
|
|
</command>. This should be supplemented by an addtional setting
|
||
|
|
<link linkend="PRINTING">printing = cups</link> in the [global]
|
||
|
|
section. <command moreinfo="none">printcap name = cups</command> will use the
|
||
|
|
"dummy" printcap created by CUPS, as specified in your CUPS
|
||
|
|
configuration file.
|
||
|
|
</para>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<para>On System V systems that use <command moreinfo="none">lpstat</command> to
|
||
|
|
list available printers you can use <command moreinfo="none">printcap name = lpstat
|
||
|
|
</command> to automatically obtain lists of available printers. This
|
||
|
|
is the default for systems that define SYSV at configure time in
|
||
|
|
Samba (this includes most System V based systems). If <parameter moreinfo="none">
|
||
|
|
printcap name</parameter> is set to <command moreinfo="none">lpstat</command> on
|
||
|
|
these systems then Samba will launch <command moreinfo="none">lpstat -v</command> and
|
||
|
|
attempt to parse the output to obtain a printer list.</para>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<para>A minimal printcap file would look something like this:</para>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<para><programlisting format="linespecific">
|
||
|
|
print1|My Printer 1
|
||
|
|
print2|My Printer 2
|
||
|
|
print3|My Printer 3
|
||
|
|
print4|My Printer 4
|
||
|
|
print5|My Printer 5
|
||
|
|
</programlisting></para>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<para>where the '|' separates aliases of a printer. The fact
|
||
|
|
that the second alias has a space in it gives a hint to Samba
|
||
|
|
that it's a comment.</para>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<note><para>Under AIX the default printcap
|
||
|
|
name is <filename moreinfo="none">/etc/qconfig</filename>. Samba will assume the
|
||
|
|
file is in AIX <filename moreinfo="none">qconfig</filename> format if the string
|
||
|
|
<filename moreinfo="none">qconfig</filename> appears in the printcap filename.</para></note>
