hello i think always the same problem :( so i would like to put drivers on my samba server in $print in howto they said in section "Add printer wizard driver installation" chap 20 : " Do not click on Yes! Instead, click on No in the error dialog. Now you will be presented with the printer properties window. From here, the way to assign a driver to a printer is open. -> Select a driver from the pop-up list of installed drivers. Initially this list will be empty." ok it's really empty but i cannot add new driver (hide) .... so what can i do ? so what's wrong thank you !

First thing first? Which samba release are you using?

stenon@lpmm.sciences.univ-metz.fr schrieb:> hello > i think always the same problem :( > > so i would like to put drivers on my samba server in $printtry to do it like this: 2) configure your CUPS printer, make sure your server can print on that printer 1) put PostScript drivers into /usr/share/cups/drivers: ps5ui.dll pscript5.dll pscript.hlp pscript.ntf These four files you will find on every Windows XP workstation. 2) configure your CUPS printer, make sure your server can print on that printer 3) when printer works, reload (or restart) Samba - it has to be aware of new printers: /etc/init.d/smb reload (or restart) 4) finally, add cups drivers to a given printer: # cupsaddsmb -U Administrator -a -v where Administrator is the domain admin. You will be prompted for a password, and after supplying one, the drivers will be attached to a given printer. 5) right click on the printer from the server, and choose "Connect". the drivers will be downloaded from the workstation to the server automatically. You can do it also in startup scripts - so you don't even need to touch any workstation, and can do everything remotely: This one has to be executed as Administrator or SYSTEM - you can use WPKG for that :) rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /q /y /ga /in /n \\server\kyocera And once again, as a user netlogon script: rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /q /y /ga /in /n \\server\kyocera That's because the normal user has no permission to set a new printer, unless it's first installed on the workstation by someone with appropriate privileges. -- Tomek http://wpkg.org

Since you're using 3.0.14a you should have a "printer admin users_or_groups_who_admin_printers" You are using the local windows Administrator account. I believe that when you logon to the samba services, you send the user in this format: "winmachinename\administrator". Does that user belong to the administrators group at the Samba box? Or does it get mapped to root via smbusers? Hope this helps, Bruno Guerreiro> >i did smbpasswd -a root ? usefull or useless ? > >thanks > >
hi yes i'm sure ... i'm logged in administrator (user in administrator group) why did you say machinename ? so my problem is that drivers are well uploaded on samba share $print (/printer/W32X86/3/hp*) but after when i want to finish installation i get : not saved , access denied ???

Hi, Because I think when not in NT Domain, every user presents itself as machinename/username. Imagine this: Administrator from PC1 can administrate samba Administrator from PC2 can't administrate samba. If only Administrator was sent, how would they be diferentiated? In fact it also happens on a domain infrastructure. The only difference is that instead of machinename, the domainname is used. Anyone feel free to jump in and correct me, if I'm wrong...
