samba - Sep 2014 - Issue with printer sharing

Hi list,

I just set up a print server using Samba 4 as a domain member.
I successfully uploaded drivers to the server (through 
printmanagement.msc). A test machine has been able to print through the 
server but I'm unable to access preference page of the printer in 
printmanagement.msc (preference page is fine on client). RSAT keep 
saying that the driver isn't installed, installs it and then fails when 
I try to click on "preferences" (error code 0x7e) or when I try to
print
a test page (0x06d1). x64 & x86 drivers have been uploaded.

When I right clic on the printer (before the "driver is not installed 
message") I can see that the driver files are being read by the 
accessing machine.

Any hints?

Regards

Can you ensure, that you followed
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_as_a_print_server
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Configuring_Point_n_Click_Automatic_Printer_Driver_Deployment


If you completely followed the guides, and still having problems, please
provide more details, that allows us to help. E. g.
- Samba Version?
- Self compiled, Distro package, other package?
- smb.conf
- Full driver name incl. version
- Driver type (PS, PCL5/6,...)
- etc.
