If no printcap name is specified __testprns__ will attempt to scan the printcap file name specified at compile time. !!FILES ''/etc/printcap'' This is usually the default printcap file to scan. See ''printcap (5)''. !!DIAGNOSTICS If a printer is found to be valid, the message If a printer is found to be invalid, the message All messages that would normally be logged during operation of the Samba daemons are logged by this program to the file ''test.log'' in the current directory.
