I am having some problems with uploading printer drivers. I follow the procedures as outlined in both TOSHARG and Samba-3 by Example, and I use the Add Printer Drivers Wizard to upload the drivers. It looks OK, and the drivers make into the \\server\print$\W32X86\3 directory. But when I click okay, I get "Printer settings could not be saved. Access is denied." This happens when changing any other settings as well. I am doing this as a printer admin, and I have set the directories and printing related .tdb's to 777 for testing. I tried to use the rpcclient and it returns WERR_ACCESS_DENIED. I am really lost. Using Samba 3.0.2a and Slackware-current.

Make sure that the printer share has the 'use client driver' set to 'no'. That was my problem.

I ran into a similar problem recently. Marcus O.
