Virtual line printer test program (vlp) ======================================= This can be useful for testing/debugging Samba print code. It gives you a virtual full-function printer. Setup Set up Samba to use vlp. In your smb.conf file under [global], add the following option: printing = vlp and then add any number of print shares, without needing to make them really exist. [testprinter] printable = yes is all you need for the most basic virtual printer.
