[Samba] Can't install printer driver automatically for some printers
Hi all, I've published some printers through samba and cups, and also published drivers to print$ using cupsaddsmb. I'm in an Active Directory environment (DC are Windows 2003). All seems to work with no errors, however Point'n'Print works only for some printers. For two printers I receive instead the message "The server for the XXX printer does not have the correct printer driver installed". The output for of the command "rpcclient localhost -c 'getdriver XXX'" is IDENTICAL for all printers (except for the name of the .ppd file, obviously). I appreciate any suggestion in order to solve the problem. My smb.conf is: #======================= Global Settings ====================== [global] netbios name = PIRIPICCHIO #wins support = yes realm = SEDE.SHSGROUP workgroup = SEDE dns proxy = no log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m #log level = 3 max log size = 1000 syslog = 0 panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d security = ads encrypt passwords = true passdb backend = tdbsam obey pam restrictions = yes unix password sync = yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *Enter\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *password\supdated\ssuccessfully* . pam password change = yes map to guest = bad user username map = /etc/samba/smbusers idmap uid = 10000-20000 idmap gid = 10000-20000 template shell = /bin/bash template homedir = /home/%D/%U winbind enum groups = yes winbind enum users = yes winbind use default domain = yes usershare path = /usr/share/samba/usershares usershare allow guests = yes printing = cups printcap name = cups #======================= Share Definitions ====================== [printers] comment = All Printers browseable = no path = /var/spool/samba printable = yes guest ok = no read only = yes create mask = 0700 [print$] comment = Printer Drivers path = /var/lib/samba/printers browseable = yes read only = no guest ok = no [Desktops] comment = Desktop Icons path = /usr/share/samba/shares/desktops read only = yes browseable = yes guest ok = yes [icone$] comment = Opera Icon path = /usr/share/samba/shares/icons read only = yes browseable = no guest ok = yes [Scripts] comment = Various Scripts path = /usr/share/samba/shares/scripts read only = yes browseable = yes guest ok = yes [XenAppHosted] comment = Deployed Software path = /usr/share/samba/shares/xenapphosted read only = yes browseable = yes guest ok = yes Thank you so much.
