     Executing SMBPRINT.EXE without any paramters get it to spell this    
   out:     
       
     smbprint.exe "spoolfile" "printerqueue" "jobname" "pages" "jobsize"   
        
     Let's see what happens when I call smbprint.exe manually.    
      
     I have produced by "print to file" a printfile. When I copy it to    
   the LPT port which is used by Fxprint, then everything goes fine --    
   the printfile appears as fax waiting to be sent over the wire.    
      
     When I use smbprint.exe in this form    
      
   >  smbprint.exe "testprint.prm" "fxprint" "testpage" "3" "128494"   
      
     then Faxwork is happy with the command, makes an entry in the list    
   of faxes, but does not show the file to be sent. Well, one problem    
   seems to have been solved, namely that of the "Unknown Job-ID" which    
   the Faxworks printer driver complains about. But the actual content of   
   the file to be printed does not appear. The same happens with a file    
   which is actually transferred via the net and which then gets a name    
   like "smbprn.00000004.50wJVF". It is OK when I simply COPY this file    
   to the LPT port assigned to the Faxprint driver.    
      
      
   Cheers,   
   L.W.
