[plug] Printing From Ubuntu 5.10

All,

I've just installed Ubuntu (5.10) on a spare PC. I am trying to
configure it to print to a Magicolor 2300DL attached to a Win2000 PC.

I specify SAMBA the HOST_NAME USER_NAME and PASSWORD oh and the share
name.

When I send a test print it doesn't come out of the print. I know that
the share is fine because I can print to it from other PCs.

If I take a look using the CUPS WWW UI (localhost:631) It shows that the
print job is complete. A closer looks shows that the job "aborted".
Below is an extract of CUPS error log.

Thanks
