RE: print to pdf?

["Chris Mason" <masonc masonc com>]

At this point, I have the remote windows machine printing to the pdf
share, and I see the file spool in /var/spool/samba
After printing ends, the spool file disappears, and I cannot find out
what happens. /usr/bin/printpdf is never called.

Any ideas>
Here's the relevant sections of smb.conf:

I've tried this, and the printpdf script works great, but I can't get
the printer to work. I am using  printing = cups as the print system, is
that likely to be the problem? If so, any solution?
