I have 2 printers working with cups just fine, and I can print out a test
page from the web interface ok.  But after setting up point and print
drivers for samba and printing a test page, all I get is pages and pages of
junk.  The drivers came from running make with the
cups-windows-6.0-source.tar.gz file, and the windows drivers were copied
manually from a win XP machine.  Here is my system info:

Redhat EL 5.1
kernel-xen-2.6.18-53.el5
cups-1.2.4-11.14.el5
samba-3.0.25b-0.el5.4

and the output running the cupsaddsmb command:


cupsaddsmb -v -H lumos6 -U root FS-1018MFP_192.168.181.246

This happens for both printers too, the junk pages look like they might be
trying to print PS as text or something, but I can only guess.

Any help here would be appreciated,
