You may have already thought of this idea, but is the LBP 2900 a
postscript printer? If so, you can use the Foomatic generic postscript
driver, or the driver for just about any other postscript printer, for
that matter.

Possible, I suppose, but I doubt it, unless you have something unusual in your
smb.conf.
Bruce mentioned a gentoo guide. In my experience gentoo documentation is
usually very good, so it's definitely worth looking at.

I've seen this mentioned before as a workaround, but the only time I needed to
try it I couldn't get it to work.

I wouldn't expect the problem to be in samba. The gentoo guide may be old, of
course.

I hope so, too :-) After you installed the printer driver from canon, did you
try installing the printer through the cups interface (localhost:631)? The
new driver should be among the ones listed if it installed correctly. Put
your latest version of the driver on, then try this and let us know what
happens.

I'm glad you found a solution. You might want to take a moment to go to
the Linux Printing site and update the information on the printer model,
so that others don't have to go through the same difficulties you've
had.
