I have an HP connected to my Windows machine and is shared. I am trying to print from my Mac machine to Windows via my TCP/IP network. I am able to share files between the two machines and I am able to browse to and add the HP to my Mac via the OS X Printer Utility. However, after printing something, I get an error on my Mac that says NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED. Then after a while it says something about Samba.

Has anyone encountered this issue and does anyone have a method of printing to a shared Windows machine?

I have seen this before. The typical issue is that you need to specify a "userid" to make Windows happy, even though it is not used. If you have configured your printer via redhat-configure-printer, add a userid of guest., and if you have used cups, add change the "url" to smb://guest@workgroup/host/sharename

Someone asked about this a while ago, it was either with HP or Lexmark printers. Basically, he ended up calling the manufacturer only to be told that it's simply not possible with that company's printers. Hopefully it's not HP :whistle:

Though, that error message makes me think it's an authentication problem.

I couldn't for the life of me get OS X to print to my Windows 2003 network share (it always gave me some sort of error like you have). I eventually just installed IIS and made the printer an IP printer ... I'd never done that before so it was a bit of a learning curve, but I eventually got it and it's been working great ever since. :)

this is a common either Samba error or CUPS, I am trying to resolve it myself but I finally got the printer to print from Vista to Samba :)

If I find anything out I will let you know

I don't think he'll care, since the thread is 4 years old and he hasn't visited the site since April 2007.

      Since they open sourced the calculator in Win 10/11 it is much better and can do a lot, I love it.

      That's just silly imo. The lengths that man goes to just to avoid W11 is just nuts. Very, very few home users would do that. I will say this though, he is committed. Btw, I note on askwoody that Woody Leonhard passed away March, 2025 aged 73. His site was one of my favorites back in the day. Belated yes but RIP Woody.

      Because of the EU (a good thing) newer android devices been getting 5 years worth of security patches. Except some Motorola which found the loop hole, and offer ZERO updates. In addition, Google for years have been making where it can patch some stuff by updating the core Google Play Store itself.  As echoed earlier,  you take the security risk in to your own hand beyond supported.
