+ 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.</p><p><span class="emphasis"><em>DEVICE URI</em></span></p><p>smbspool specifies the destination using a Uniform Resource
+ Identifier ("URI") with a method of "smb". This string can take
+ a number of forms:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>smb://server[:port]/printer</p></li><li><p>smb://workgroup/server[:port]/printer</p></li><li><p>smb://username:password@server[:port]/printer</p></li><li><p>smb://username:password@workgroup/server[:port]/printer</p></li></ul></div><p>smbspool tries to get the URI from the environment variable
+ <code class="envar">DEVICE_URI</code>. If <code class="envar">DEVICE_URI</code> is not present,
+ smbspool will use argv[0] if that starts with “<span class="quote">smb://</span>”
+ or argv[1] if that is not the case.</p><p>Programs using the <span><strong class="command">exec(2)</strong></span> functions can
+ pass the URI in argv[0], while shell scripts must set the
+ <code class="envar">DEVICE_URI</code> environment variable prior to
+ running smbspool.</p></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en"><a name="id2450677"></a><h2>OPTIONS</h2><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>The job argument (argv[1]) contains the
+ job ID number and is presently not used by smbspool.
+ </p></li><li><p>The user argument (argv[2]) contains the
+ print user's name and is presently not used by smbspool.
+ </p></li><li><p>The title argument (argv[3]) contains the
+ job title string and is passed as the remote file name
+ when sending the print job.</p></li><li><p>The copies argument (argv[4]) contains
+ the number of copies to be printed of the named file. If
+ no filename is provided then this argument is not used by
+ smbspool.</p></li><li><p>The options argument (argv[5]) contains
+ the print options in a single string and is currently
+ not used by smbspool.</p></li><li><p>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.</p></li></ul></div></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en"><a name="id2450728"></a><h2>VERSION</h2><p>This man page is correct for version 3.0 of the Samba suite.</p></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en"><a name="id2450739"></a><h2>SEE ALSO</h2><p><a href="smbd.8.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">smbd</span>(8)</span></a> and <a href="samba.7.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">samba</span>(7)</span></a>.</p></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en"><a name="id2450763"></a><h2>AUTHOR</h2><p><span><strong class="command">smbspool</strong></span> was written by Michael Sweet
