Printing to Windows2000 printer Via Samba


I'm having trouble printing to my Epson Stylus 740 connected to my Win2K 
box. I believe I have correctly setup APSFILTER. I ran the SETUP chose 
my printer papersize and pointed it to my win2k box with samba. The test 
page prints out fine but when ever I try to print from an application 
like mozilla with lpr it will send the print job but nothing comes out 
of the printer when I type lpq -a the print job is there.  I'm running 
FreeBSD 4.3 stable.


heres my smbclient.conf file for lp

SMB_SERVER='server'  <-- name of netbios for win2k box (do I need 
\\server)??
SMB_IP='192.168.0.6'
SMB_PRINTER='EpsonSty'
SMB_WORKGROUP='monaco'
SMB_BUFFER=1400
SMB_FLAGS='-N'
SMB_USER='administrator'
SMB_PASSWD='blah'

Best Regards,

Brian
