Configuring samba sharing printer

We can make Ubuntu as a server sharing the printer. Configuration process must be done as user root. open the terminal.

Start Menu -> Accesories -> Terminal

Next login as root, and type the command:


$ gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf

Some lines must be edited is;

1. In the authentication, security add a security = share
2. In the authentication, encrypt passwords = true
3. In the authentication, guest account = nobody
4. In the printing, load printers = yes
5. In the printing, printing = cups
6. In the printing, printcap name = cups
7. On the share definition, tag printers, browseable = yes
8. On the share definition, tag printers, public = yes
   

You can enter some additional configuration to make sure samba is running smoothly, as follows;

• In the networking, the interface is filled with the engine at that time
• At the global - browsing identification, give a new value called NetBIOS name with the desired name. Most easily, the user name of the machine
  

Save and restart the samba service using the command:

$ /etc/init.d/samba restart

#====================== Global Settings =======================
