Should work. Are you sure, that you changed the settings in the
"Advanced - Printing defaults" (in german: Erweitert - Standardwerte)
tab and not using the "Printer settings" button in the first tab?
If not, you've only changed the settings in your local "per user"
registry and not on the samba server.
If you did it, please tell a bit more about the samba version and the
driver you're using. And make sure, that the user of the workstation has
no local device mode for this printer. The local device mode (which is
created, when you enter the "printer settings") allways overwrites the
default devicemode (which is provided by the samba server).
Bye,
Martin
