After a while, the /var filesystem is full because the smbd samba daemon cannot release the space of job files removed:
To release this space I must restart the service or kill -15 the process that already use this file.
This is the situation after some hours of work:

The /var/spool/samba folder is empty, but the smbprn temp file still use the space on filesystem because the file is already open, and after a while i get a filesystem full on /var.
Is this a know issue? There is some solution?
Many thanks
