[Samba] Win7 x64 postscript printer -> samba print Apple Laserwriter not available
Hi folks. I've got a system where my WinXP (they still work well) workstations have a virtual printer installed on them. This virtual printer uses Apple Colour Laserwriter Postscript drivers to generate PS files which are then printed to a linux server where Samba passes the file to one of my scripts which then parses the file, extracts data, coverts the PS to PDF and then inserts the details into a database. My problem is that on the new Win7 x86 PC's the Apple drivers are not available. Can anyone point me to compatible drivers, or what I can do instead. -- Gary Stainburn Group I.T.
