DELL 720 printer shared on SAMBA??

by Ken Jones

I've unsuccessfully googled this problem. Maybe you folks know a solution. My wife received a freebie DEL 720 printer. It is really a relabeled Lexmark z600 type. By downloading a driver from Lexmark, I got the printer running on my FEDORA 4 machine. I want to share this printer using SAMBA. After installing the same driver on my FEDORA 3 machine its CUPS sees the remote printer and "installs" it. When I ask to print a test page it announces that it had sent the page. Nothing happens on the FEDORA 3 machine to which the printer is attached. It's CUPS says that nothing is in the printer's queue. Any ideas? Ken Jones

RE: [Wlug] deleting a file named "--exclude"

by James Gray

If the Unix shell doesn't like it then try something else... You could try something like: bash-2.05b$ python >>>import os >>>os.unlink('--exclude') >>><Control-Z (just to exit python)> Assuming you have python installed. I think this should be installed by default on most Linux systems. -----Original Message----- From: wlug-bounces(a)mail.wlug.org on behalf of dulsi(a)identicalsoftware.com Sent: Fri 10/14/2005 11:51 AM To: wlug(a)mail.wlug.org Subject: Re: [Wlug] deleting a file named "--exclude" No. Unix shells expands everything on the command line before running the program. So "rm *exclude" and "rm ??exclude" expand to "rm --exclude". The program cannot tell that the "--exclude" was expanded from wildcard values.
