Why is it still giving me the access denied error? Best

I am using Slackware 10.2 (kernel 2.4.29) and Samba 3.0.21c for my print server. The client workstations are WinNT4. I have two printers on the linux server..an HP DeskJet 600 and an Okidata B4250.

I have a Samba 3.0.4 server that has several point and print printers which are functioning just fine. I have added another printer, an HP BusinessJet 1100d, and attempted to load the drivers on the Samba server for that printer (for WinNT, Win2K and WinXP).

Hi, I installed a printer via cups, did the driver installation as described in Procedure 5.17. Steps to Install Printer Drivers on the Samba Servers (Samba-3 by Example). I changed the paper-size in the printer-settings and the device-settings from letter to A4. After the installation of the printer on a workstation, I got the wrong local printer settings (again letter instead of A4). Best

Hello Everybody, we got new networkprinters and set them up. They work fine, but driverupload doesn't seem to work. We deleted the drivers used by the printers we had before. My question is should I also delete the .tdb files associated with printing? I remember driverupload once worked well with the printers we had before. Any advice would be nice. Jan Kellerhoff

We're using a couple of HP printers (2200, 4200, 3390) using the HP PCL 6 printer driver. Printer drivers are installed on the samba (3.0.24) box, connecting, driver installation and printing work OK. Problem: using the same driver version with the printer shared by a windows box gives some additional options like - brochure printing - putting serveral pages on one sheet Any Idea why

Hi I've a question about Samba, Cups and the Windows clients default printer settings. Where are the these settings saved? Is there a special file or is it saved somewhere in the $print share? thanks for your help Pascal

I have followed the various guides online for setting up Cups and Samba, to where you can just right click a print and choice connect and the printer just works but then it does not work with Vista. It seems to print out tons of junk. Is there a way to make Vista work with Cups + Samba?

Greetings Samba Fans! I'm experiencing a strange problem which started after installation of Service Pack 2 for Windows XP: When a user tries to print there is a long delay (sometimes around 2 minutes) before the printer properties page is opened. This only affects Windows XP with Service Pack 2 installed. I did a 'tcpdump' on the printserver and observed something quite strange:

Hi, I currently have deadtime = 15 in my smb.conf. This featured worked good to disconnect clients that have been idle for > 15 minutes in the past. With the 3.0.13 version, it seems to do nothing. As in, it just keeps the user connected indefinitely. Here is what I see when no one is currently at the office and everyone is logged off their computer. Thanks [root@spicy p]#
