similar to: Add printer wizard (XP)

Using SuSE V8.0 Samba 2.2.7a on a small network I have a Lexmark laser printer attached to the Linux PC, using Cups 1.1.15. I was able to print from Linux OK, and some months ago had setup the Win NT PC to print across the network to the laser. So all was well. Recently I had a couple of problems with the NT machine (the usual BSOD's etc) also had a couple of problems with the SuSE PC

We have a Samba 3.01 pre3 server that acts as a print server among other things. When our users go to the add printer wizard in Windows, it doesn't show our samba server! The only way to add a printer is by manually entering the path. That's really inconvenient if you don't know the path. :) Is there some way we can resolve this? Thanks, Tait Shrum Bryant Schools

I'm having some problems with our Samba Add-Printer-Wizard setup and CUPS. Everything is working fine (drivers upload, download, configured) except for one thing. Both my addprinter and deleteprinter scripts are forced to restart Samba in order to successfully complete their respective adding and deleting. Because of this, sometimes Samba will not come back up correctly. I read that

I'm following along in the guide, trying to make printer drivers available from Samba. But when I right-click on a printer in Windows XP and select the "properties" tab, it's disabled: http://tinypic.com/usermedia.php?uo=BMeeHijW2w%2FyTvDsjpQbEQ%3D%3D So how do I enable this so the client can upload the drivers? So far I have tried: * Add the name of the user as "printer

Hi I hope somebody can help me with my driver uploading problem. I have done everything according to the printing docs (I think =) ), but I can't seem to be able to upload the driver via neither XP or W2k. The error I get when using XP is: "An error occured while copying file ......... Cannot copy file to destination directory. Click Retry to retry the operation or click Cancel to

I'm having a bit of trouble getting a Samba printer set up. What I have is a postscript capable HP laserjet. It actually has IPP/HTTP and stuff on it. I need queueing to work, so my clients can't print to it directly, so what I want to do is: Get the printer set up on a central CUPs server: done. Printing quality is perfect from Unix machines. Thank you postscript! Have samba print to

Hello all, We have a Samba box set up as our primary campus print server, running CUPS 1.1.19 and Samba 3.3.0. Our primary interface for adding printers is the Add Printer Wizard. I am finding very slow response while adding/modifying/deleting printers.

Hi everyone. I am trying to upload the printer drivers to the Samba domain controller.

Hi, would be happy if somebody might help me with the following problem: I installed Samba as the Primary DC -- works perfectly, XP clients can join the domain, access the shares ...

I'm running samba 2.2.2-6 on a redhat 7.2 box running 2.4.9-7 kernel... I'm trying to upload printer drivers from a Windows 2000 client. I've followed the instructions in the samba howto collection. I've created the print$ share, created the printer directory and subdirs, and made sure they are writeable by me. I put myself in the write list and the printer admin list.

Am running Samba 3.0.20 on SuSE 10.0 and cups as my printer provider. I've used the cups gui to create a number of printers. They appeared correctly in my Printers and Faxes folder in Explorer and I uploaded my print drivers successfully. Now, a few days later, I'm looking at my printers and I notice that the comments that show up on the print shares themselves still reflect some old data
