14.7.  Samba with CUPS Printing Support

Samba allows client machines to share printers connected to the Samba server, as well as send Linux documents to Windows printer shares. Although there are other printing systems that function with Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CUPS (Common UNIX Print System) is the recommended printing system due to its close integration with Samba.

14.7.1. Simple smb.conf Settings

The following example shows a very basic smb.conf configuration for CUPS support: 
[global]
load printers = Yes
printing = cups
printcap name = cups

[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba/print
printer = IBMInfoP
browseable = No
public = Yes
guest ok = Yes
writable = No
printable = Yes
printer admin = @ntadmins

[print$]
comment = Printer Drivers Share
path = /var/lib/samba/drivers
write list = ed, john
printer admin = ed, john
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
More complicated printing configurations are possible. To add additional security and privacy for printing confidential documents, users can have their own print spooler not located in a public path. If a job fails, other users would not have access to the file.
The print$ share contains printer drivers for clients to access if not available locally. The print$ share is optional and may not be required depending on the organization.
Setting browseable to Yes enables the printer to be viewed in the Windows Network Neighborhood, provided the Samba server is set up correctly in the domain/workgroup.
