5# Version 1.0 13 January 1995
6# modified from the original smbprint (bsd) script
7#
8# this script is a System 5 printer interface script. It uses the smbclient
9# program to print the file to the specified smb-based server and service.
10#
11# To add this to your lp system, modify the server and service variables
12# and then execute the following command (as root):
13#
14# lpadmin -punixprintername -v/dev/null -i/usr/samba/bin/smbprint
15#
16# where unixprintername is the name that the printer will be known as
17# on your unix box.
18#
19# the script smbprint will be copied into your printer administration
20# directory (/usr/spool/lp) as a new interface (interface/unixprintername)
21# Then you have to execute the following commands:
22#
23# enable unixprintername
24# accept unixprintername
25#
26# This script will then be called by the lp service to print the files.
27# This script will have 6 or more parameters passed to it by the lp service.
28# The first five will contain details of the print job, who queued it etc,
29# while parameters 6 onwards are a list of files to print. We just
30# cat these to the samba client.
31#
32# clear out the unwanted parameters
33
34shift;shift;shift;shift;shift
35
36# now the argument list is just the files to print
37
38# Set these to the server and service you wish to print to
39# In this example I have a PC called "admin" that has a printer
40# exported called "hplj2" with no password.
41#
42server=admin
43service=hplj2
44password=""

46# NOTE: The line `echo translate' provides automatic CR/LF translation
47# when printing.
