samba - Aug 2024 - Where samba store printer/driver information?

Samba in AD mode, of course; printer server on a domain member with cups.


For the second time i'me lost, on a server, all the associaton between
printers and drivers, so i've to set it all.

Old samba 3 was clear:

	https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/old/Samba3-HOWTO/tdb.html

but now i've not found (even doing 'tdbdump') where printer names,
driver
association and so on are stored. I've found:

	https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/TDB_Locations

but nothing more.


Someone can help me? Thanks.

Not sure what your question is but I do set up printers and associate drivers
like this:

Do you have printQueue objects in the LDB database?

I don't know anything about printing, but these have the right kinds of
attributes:

  lDAPDisplayName: printQueue
  systemMayContain: driverVersion
  systemMayContain: driverName
  systemMustContain: printerName
