Hello, we installed cups, the cups-windows driver and added the printers to samba via cupsaddsmb. As administrators we can print to this printer. When I look into windows security tab "everyone" has the right to print, but when the standard users logs in there are two problems: - the printer does not appear in ther printers windows and I have to add it a secont time to the user - the user has not the right to print to the printers. Actualy I solved it by printing via http to cups, but the installation steps are to complicated. ** Can anyone please tell me if there is something wrong in our smb.conf Thanks Andreas [global] netbios name = atlas1 netbios aliases = svc-ps workgroup = verwaltung server string = Samba winbind trusted domains only = Yes ############################################################# admin users = skaltenhauser jschrott ghirber amessavilla apreti ablasbichler amoroder fsigmund wins server = 10.53.5.12 time server = Yes ############################################################ security = domain domain master = no domain logons = no ######################################################### ldap admin dn = uid=sambaadmin,dc=sb-brixen,dc=it passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://10.53.5.12/ ldap machine suffix = ou=samba-computers ldap group suffix = ou=groups ldap suffix = dc=sb-brixen,dc=it ldap user suffix = ou=users ldapsam:trusted = yes #################################################### directory security mask = 770 create mask = 0766 directory mask = 0777 printing = cups dos charset = 850 os level = 200 obey pam restrictions = No preserve case = yes enable privileges = yes show add printer wizard = yes printcap name = cups dont descend = /proc,/dev,/etc,/lib,/lost+found,/initrd short preserve case = yes max log size = 100000 log level = 0 log file = /var/log/samba/%U.log load printers = Yes hide unreadable = yes socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 mangling method = hash2 deadtime = 10 map to guest = Bad User username map = /etc/samba/smbusers encrypt passwords = Yes case sensitive = no syslog = 0 unix charset = ISO8859-1 [printers] comment = Network Printers printer admin = @"Print Operators" guest ok = yes printable = yes path = /var/spool/samba browseable = No public = yes [print$] comment = Drucker Treiber path = /etc/samba/drivers guest ok = No browseable = Yes read only = Yes write list = @"Print Operators" ** IPP Installation Add the printer via samba share Add a second printer via IPP, chose a standard printer driver change the driver in this second printer to the cups one delete the first printer.
