var/spool/samba fills up ? how to prevent this?

[wbstrider]

Network users could not print due to the spool dir filling up.

I wonder what setting I need to change so the spooled files delete after printed?

Using CUPS. No other system problems. )

Thanks for any assistance or ideas

Not the best solution, but the only one I know:

print command = /usr/bin/lpr -P%p -r %s;rm %s

In the [global] section of smb.conf

"If you always do what you've always done, you will always be where you've always been."

Apparently my samba is not linked against libcups. (whatever that is) So the print command should not be ignored.

But before I insert it into my conf file, wanted to be sure of the effect.

My spool dir is /var/spool/samba for the samba printjobs. And the Print Command you gave points elsewhere. I wonder could you tell me what the command you wrote will do. I've been trying to research.

Thanks for the help.

Just the rm %s has been added

print command = /usr/bin/lpr -P%p -r %s;rm %s

"/usr/bin/lpr -P%p -r %s" would print %s
";rm %s" would remove the file
