Re: LaserJet Plus and Samba
One alternative is magicfilter:
apt-get install magicfilter
you can then use magicfilterconfig to set up the printer. It's pretty hard
to mess up, and the resulting setup lets you send pretty much
anything: text, postscript, dvi, pdf, graphics files, etc., and they are
recognized and printed.
