| 1 | Virtual line printer test program (vlp)
|
|---|
| 2 | =======================================
|
|---|
| 3 |
|
|---|
| 4 | This can be useful for testing/debugging Samba print code. It gives you a
|
|---|
| 5 | virtual full-function printer.
|
|---|
| 6 |
|
|---|
| 7 | Setup
|
|---|
| 8 |
|
|---|
| 9 | 1) Configure and build Samba.
|
|---|
| 10 | For this to work, you need to add:
|
|---|
| 11 | -DDEVELOPER
|
|---|
| 12 | to your CFLAGS, and add:
|
|---|
| 13 | --srcdir=<wherever your source is>
|
|---|
| 14 | when running configure. Generally
|
|---|
| 15 | ./configure --srcdir=`pwd` <other configure options>
|
|---|
| 16 | should work.
|
|---|
| 17 |
|
|---|
| 18 | 2) Build and install vlp.
|
|---|
| 19 | # cd testsuite/printing
|
|---|
| 20 | # make -f Makefile.vlp vlp
|
|---|
| 21 | # su
|
|---|
| 22 | # cp vlp /usr/local/samba/bin
|
|---|
| 23 |
|
|---|
| 24 | 3) Set up Samba to use vlp.
|
|---|
| 25 | In your smb.conf file under [global], add the following option:
|
|---|
| 26 | printing = vlp
|
|---|
| 27 | and then add any number of print shares, without needing to make them
|
|---|
| 28 | really exist.
|
|---|
| 29 |
|
|---|
| 30 | [testprinter]
|
|---|
| 31 | printable = yes
|
|---|
| 32 |
|
|---|
| 33 | is all you need for the most basic virtual printer.
