hi, since I upgraded some winxp-pro sp2 client to sp3, my samba-shared printers are no-longer usable :-/ With sp3, if I run notepad and choose the men? File-Print, the "print" window hangs and does not show any printer for about 1 minute! The same thing happens when I click on the men? Start-settings-Printer and faxes. With sp2, everything works correctly and I can browse all my

While this doesn't relate specifically to Samba, I need to do this in a netlogon .bat file in a Samba domain. In my network, I have a printer hooked to a JetDirect so that it is a TCP/IP printer. Is there a way I can automatically have this printer mapped/added when the user is logged on? -- Andrew Gaffney

Is it possible to use some kind of netlogon script to add a printer? net use \\server\printert ??

Hi, We're setting up a PDC, and would like to have a login script to deliver the mapped drives to users in particular groups, and connect to printers. The printer drivers come from the [print$], share. Does anyone have any good resources for this? What's the easiest and simplest thing to get going --vbscript or batch files? Thanks, chris

I don't know the final answer BUT if you have something simmilar to a cyber-cafe LAN (I mean, users use all the computers, and maybe some users come back to login with the same name) then you have to install a printer only once in a computer, loging as the administrator and installing drivers. Then what users will have to do is JUST add the printer without installing. I know that it's

How do you manage printers on Windows workstations? What I mean, suppose you have many classrooms, different printers (which sometimes change) in these classroms - how do you manage which workstation (or a group of them) will use which printer? So far I've been using WPKG for that - as I described here: http://wpkg.org/wiki/index.php/Printer_configuration But somehow I feel it

Hi list I'm wondering if it and how it is possible to add printers to a workstation with a logon script like mounting shares. I can't find anything about this on the inetnet so is this possible? regards lm

Hi, I have a question about the assignment of printer drivers for windows to my printers in printcap. How do I configure a printer located in my printcap to be recognised by a windows pc as the right model? Where is the mapping supposed to be saved? I have RH 7.2, samba 2.2.3 and lprng running on a PPro 200 Compaq. My intention is that it will serv as a queue server for about 100 printers.

Cups 1.2.7 Debian Etch with Samba 3.0.24 Clients: WinXP SP3 (with Firewall completely off for testing) When I define a printer specifically in smb.conf, they show up as shared printers in WinXP. But when I follow the normal way (see below) to load all from cups they don't. I followed mainly the latest SAMBA-HOWTO (chapter 21-22) The only error I see in log.smbd when accessing the

Hi all, Just a quick question about login scripts for a large number of users who change rooms a lot. I have several rooms each with a printer, and nearly a thousand users divided into two main groups - pupils and teachers who change rooms on a routine basis. Is it possible to set up multiple login scripts that would be executed in sequence i.e. run by user is %u, and machine is %m is it

Samba 3.4.7 Ubuntu 10.04 Has anyone out there got Xerox 64 bit drivers working in a point and print samba set up? And if so, which Xerox drivers? And which method of driver installation? I'm at a complete loss. We currently have an environment with 500 + desktops and a couple dozen Xerox workgroup docucolor MFPs that are running fine now with XP clients and a Samba print server. We're

For Win2K, I've been using RunDLL32 printui.dll,printuientry to do a bunch of different printer related stuff (most notably, mapping printers and setting the default). Looks like NT4 doesn't have the same stuff. Is there anything classier I can use than NET USE under NT4 (without downloading something like Kixstart)?

Hi Achim, thank you for your effort! I did a couple of tests, from W8.1 with x64 driver which where rather old and therefore disignated for W7x64. But this went stale as well. Therefore I'll give it a try by using a W7-WS for uploading the drivers. Franz >>> Achim Gottinger <achim at ag-web.biz> 06.06.2017 15:27 >>> Hmm after another try an windows 7 client 32 and

Hi I have a samba server 3.0.0-15 acting as a PDC on a Windows domain (98, XP and 2000). Is there a way to automatically install printers to windows clients when users log in? Maybe by running a logon script... Thank you in advance. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Win a $20,000 Career Makeover at Yahoo! HotJobs

hello i think always the same problem :( so i would like to put drivers on my samba server in $print in howto they said in section "Add printer wizard driver installation" chap 20 : " Do not click on Yes!
