[Samba] Point n' Print + DeskJet = Access Violation
As described here: http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2004-February/080219.html (and on other places) some drivers will refuse to work after installing them using point n' print. My w2k client gives a nice acces violation after installing the hp deskjet 990c driver. I checked "man smb.conf" and found some informations about the problem. I tryed to set "default devmode" to yes, but the problem still exists. There is also a posting that says, that this was a samba bug, and it should be fixed now: http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2004-February/080294.html Unfortunately I still have this problem. Samba is 3.0.4 (I also tryed 3.0.2) -> Debian backport packages BTW: Tryed a canon driver.. worked fine! But all of the tested HP drivers (4 different versions/models faild. Can someone of you tell me how I can get this driver to work? Does a workarround exists for this problem? Any help would be great! (I think you don't need my config. Otherwise i'll post them.) Thanks in advance. Nicolas BTW: sorry for my bad (or at least not so good) english.
