I happen to know a thing or two about printing, PDF, PostScript, PJL, Fonts and related stuff.

Also familiar with some bits and pieces of Linux, Unix, Samba and Solaris printing. Not to forget bash programming and Windows cmd.exe batch scripting. I also do consultancy in these topics.

If you want, I share some of this knowledge here and on Stackoverflow (SO). Just click to browse for all.

comment How do you disable SMB printing support?
@dwery: Just because one answer is a tad bit different from mine and is the 'accepted' one doesn't mean that my answer is wrong or doesn't also solve the problem. For the record: the accepted answer will also work, yes. And at the time I did even test my own answer (albeit with a different, but similar version of Samba). -- Did you test any of the two?!

comment How to configure cups to allow remote printing with authentication and local printing without?
@Jeff Strunk: thanks for the correction; this version is correct now (I remember vaguely, that I lost internet connections towards my editing session. Maybe before my last 'save' completed...).
