Having solved my own problem :) I will answer myself for whoever might have
this problem.  To print has large files has wanted just add to the print
command -s ex. print command =3D lpr -s -r -h -P %p %s.  What it does is
create a symbolic link instead of copying the file to the spool directory
and this goes around the limitation of lpr.

>Hello,
>I'm trying to print a document from a Win NT 4.0 SP4 machine to a FreeBSD
server (2.2.7) using Samba >(2.0.2).  It's a specific file that has a few
graphics and the file generated when it prints is 1.3 >MB.  It prints out
the first 3 pages OK and then on the 4th page it starts printing odd lines
and dots >instead of the text that is suppose to be there.  I've tested
this on 2 different NT machines with the >same SP and also the same Service
releases for Office. Both do the same thing at the exact same >place.  Now,
I've also tried printing this document on a Win 95 machine and it printed
ok.  >Interesting fact; the Win95 print file is only 89K.  Is it possible
that there is a problem when files >are larger than 1 Meg or so ?  If
anyone has any ideas, let me know. Thanks !=20
