With this stanza in smb.conf: [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba browseable = yes guest ok = yes public = yes writeable = no printable = yes All client machines can see the printer. After installing the driver, they all say "Access denied, unable to connect" in the Printers and Faxes control panel. But I can print out test pages just fine, and most PCs can print. But some complain that they're waiting for the printer... one machine in particular can print a test page, but when the user tries to print from Office, it doesn't work. -- *********************************************************************** * John Oliver http://www.john-oliver.net/ * * * ***********************************************************************
