NAME
smbspool - send a print file to an SMB printer
SYNOPSIS
smbspool {job} {user} {title} {copies} {options} [filename]
DESCRIPTION
This tool is part of the samba(7) suite.
smbspool is a very small print spooling program that sends a print file
to an SMB printer. The command-line arguments are position-dependent
for compatibility with the Common UNIX Printing System, but you can use
smbspool with any printing system or from a program or script.
DEVICE URI
smbspool specifies the destination using a Uniform Resource Identifier
("URI") with a method of "smb". This string can take a number of forms:
•
smb://server[:port]/printer
•
smb://workgroup/server[:port]/printer
•
smb://username:password@server[:port]/printer
•
smb://username:password@workgroup/server[:port]/printer
smbspool tries to get the URI from the environment variable DEVICE_URI. If
DEVICE_URI is not present, smbspool will use argv[0] if that starts with
“smb://” or argv[1] if that is not the case.
Programs using the exec(2) functions can pass the URI in argv[0], while shell
scripts must set the DEVICE_URI environment variable prior to running smb-
spool.
OPTIONS
•
The job argument (argv[1]) contains the job ID number and is
presently not used by smbspool.
•
The user argument (argv[2]) contains the print user's name and is
presently not used by smbspool.
•
The title argument (argv[3]) contains the job title string and is
passed as the remote file name when sending the print job.
•
The copies argument (argv[4]) contains the number of copies to be
printed of the named file. If no filename is provided then this
argument is not used by smbspool.
•
The options argument (argv[5]) contains the print options in a sin-
gle string and is currently not used by smbspool.
•
The filename argument (argv[6]) contains the name of the file to
print. If this argument is not specified then the print file is read
from the standard input.

AUTHOR
smbspool was written by Michael Sweet at Easy Software Products.
The original Samba software and related utilities were created by
Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open
Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed.
The original Samba man pages were written by Karl Auer. The man page
sources were converted to YODL format (another excellent piece of Open
Source software, available at ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/) and
updated for the Samba 2.0 release by Jeremy Allison. The conversion to
DocBook for Samba 2.2 was done by Gerald Carter. The conversion to Doc-
Book XML 4.2 for Samba 3.0 was done by Alexander Bokovoy.
