+
+ <para>This tool is part of the <ulink url="samba.7.html">
+ Samba</ulink> suite.</para>
+
+ <para>smbspool is a very small print spooling program that
+ sends a print file to an SMB printer. The command-line arguments
+ are position-dependent for compatibility with the Common UNIX
+ Printing System, but you can use smbspool with any printing system
+ or from a program or script.</para>
+
+ <para><emphasis>DEVICE URI</emphasis></para>
+
+ <para>smbspool specifies the destination using a Uniform Resource
+ Identifier ("URI") with a method of "smb". This string can take
+ a number of forms:</para>
+
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem><para>smb://server/printer</para></listitem>
+ <listitem><para>smb://workgroup/server/printer</para></listitem>
+ <listitem><para>smb://username:password@server/printer</para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem><para>smb://username:password@workgroup/server/printer
+ </para></listitem>
+ </itemizedlist>
+
+ <para>smbspool tries to get the URI from argv[0]. If argv[0]
+ contains the name of the program then it looks in the <parameter>
+ DEVICE_URI</parameter> environment variable.</para>
+
+ <para>Programs using the <command>exec(2)</command> functions can
+ pass the URI in argv[0], while shell scripts must set the
+ <parameter>DEVICE_URI</parameter> environment variable prior to
+ running smbspool.</para>
+</refsect1>

+ <title>OPTIONS</title>
+
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem><para>The job argument (argv[1]) contains the
+ job ID number and is presently not used by smbspool.
+ </para></listitem>
+
+ <listitem><para>The user argument (argv[2]) contains the
+ print user's name and is presently not used by smbspool.
+ </para></listitem>
+
+ <listitem><para>The title argument (argv[3]) contains the
+ job title string and is passed as the remote file name
+ when sending the print job.</para></listitem>
+
+ <listitem><para>The copies argument (argv[4]) contains
+ the number of copies to be printed of the named file. If
+ no filename is provided than this argument is not used by
+ smbspool.</para></listitem>
+
+ <listitem><para>The options argument (argv[5]) contains
+ the print options in a single string and is presently
+ not used by smbspool.</para></listitem>
+
+ <listitem><para>The filename argument (argv[6]) contains the
+ name of the file to print. If this argument is not specified
+ then the print file is read from the standard input.</para>

+ <title>AUTHOR</title>
+
+ <para><command>smbspool</command> was written by Michael Sweet
+ at Easy Software Products.</para>
+
+ <para>The original Samba software and related utilities
+ were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
+ by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar
+ to the way the Linux kernel is developed.</para>
+
+ <para>The original Samba man pages were written by Karl Auer.
+ The man page sources were converted to YODL format (another
+ excellent piece of Open Source software, available at
+ <ulink url="ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/">
+ ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/</ulink>) and updated for the Samba 2.0
+ release by Jeremy Allison. The conversion to DocBook for
+ Samba 2.2 was done by Gerald Carter</para>
