Hi,
I have a question about printer drivers management in Samba4 (Samba
version 4.7.6, Ubuntu 18)
I use MMC to add new drivers to an existing cups printers, and some of
them are simply refused.
I know the samba4/cups server is operationnal as i'm able to add new
printers or drivers to it through MMC.
I guess it's not a permission problem on the server as i perform the
operation as domain administrator and i'm able tu upload some drivers.
The setup only fails for specific drivers (x64, type3 - user mode)? but
i d'on't know why.
I precise i upload those drivers from a 64 bits windows. I even tried
this parameter on cups's? smb.conf :
?spoolss: architecture = Windows x64
I also read the whole page from
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setting_up_Automatic_Printer_Driver_Downloads_for_Windows_Clients#32-bit_and_64-bit_Drivers
in MMC, Error are:
- first popup with "Access denied" => weird answer as i'm able
to upload
other drivers
- second popup ends with error 0x00000578
in Samba4/cups server logs, we have:
?mo[2019/11/21 11:57:41.151380,? 0]
../source3/printing/nt_printing.c:1145(move_driver_file_to_download_area)

drwxrwxr-x+ 2 administrator domain users? 4096 nov.? 21 10:04 3/
Any idea of what the problem is?
The printer drivers are:
- impxeroxc405??? ??? imprimante Xerox Versalink c405
- impxeroxc8030??? ? imprimante Xerox Altalink c8030
- lexxc4140??? ??? ??? ? imprimante Lexmark XC 4140

I also tried to upload it from windows7 64 bits or win10 64 bits workstation, same result. So i tried with another user account which is domain administrator and has SePrintOperatorPrivileg. Same result. It's becoming very annoying as printing is at the heart of a very important project for us.

Try this. In both printer shares set: acl_xattr:ignore system acl = yes Read/Use these as guideline to setup the rights. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2012-r2-and-2012/jj190062(v%3Dws.11) You MUST do this all from with a windows PC. And you should never touch these folders again from within Linux. Also i notice you use the Ubuntu samba version. Samba version 4.7.6, Ubuntu 18.. Setup as said above if it does not work, upgrade that samba to 4.11.2 You can find a pre-compiled here. https://apt.van-belle.nl/ (setup) wget -O - http://apt.van-belle.nl/louis-van-belle.gpg-key.asc | apt-key add - echo "deb http://apt.van-belle.nl/debian bionic-samba411 main contrib non-free" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/van-belle.list Reboot, test again. And if you point me to the exact driver your trying, i'll test it for you on my print server.

I'm still investigating on it, but sadly i cannot upgrade to 4.11 as those servers cannot reach external repositories for security reasons (those servers belong to a client which only accepts ubuntu oficial repositories..)
No worries, i tested the 4.11.2, so not needed for you to test also.

I remember having fought with Xerox drivers and Samba-CUPS in the past (seems like you driver is quite old since it still reference windows Vista). I gave up at that time and installed a Windows print server because of a Xerox driver. Like Marco was saying, some driver are just unable to upload on the server. Actually it is not necessary to have the driver on the print server, you can deploy the driver with another mean. If the driver is pre-installed locally (through a software deployment tool like WAPT or SSCM), you just have to match the string of the driver on the server in the print queue configuration. You can edit the print queue configuration through network registry (or samba_registry), and add the Printer Driver attribute with the proper string (just look at a properly configured queue for comparison). Or you can automate print queue configuration directly on the workstation and avoid print server altogether. If there is no accounting or auditing/tracing, direct printing is also be a good solution, once configuration is automated. Cheers, Denis> >-- Denis Cardon Tranquil IT 12 avenue Jules Verne (Bat.
