Hello, I have set up a cups print server and would like to offer Point'n'Print functionnality for the windows computer clients. So, i've followed informations from the man page of cupsaddsmb as resumed below: -configure smb.conf -add x86 and x64 PS drivers (from x86 and x64 windows 2008 installs). -add x86 and x64 CUPS drivers (from cups SVN) I then launch cupsaddsmb using the

Dear list, I've upgraded my server from Etch to Lenny and now the printer (HP LaserJet 6P) does not work any more through Samba. Printing a testpage via http://server:631 works perfectly so I skip giving details about the CUPS setup. Also lpstat reports the printer working # lpstat -a HP_LaserJet_6P accepting requests I tried to rerun cupsaddsmb. The driver files are copied to the

I have built a new CUPS print server on Ubuntu 8.04 server for our office (used apt-get to download the CUPS v 1.3.7 and Samba v3.0.28a packages) as a replacement for our existing Suse CUPS print server and I want to use the cupsaddsmb tool to set up printer drivers for download by PCs rather than using the Add Printer Wizard method which we have used on our older CUPS print server. After some

I'm setting up cups printing with Samba 4.0.5. I downloaded both the windows drivers and the postscript drivers and put them into /usr/share/cups/drivers/.

Hi , i am trying to add a driver to windows using the smbclient and rpc commands [got those from cupsaddsmb -v commands] and i am getting : smbclient //localhost/print$ -U $PASS -N -c ' mkdir W32X86;put GENERIC.ppd W32X86/GENERIC.ppd;put /usr/share/cups/drivers/ps5ui.dll W32X86/ps5ui.dll;put /usr/share/cups/drivers/pscript.hlp W32X86/pscript.hlp;put /usr/share/cups/drivers/pscript.ntf

Hi list I have two very similar printers set up on CUPS and Samba is configured to share the drivers. I had been playing around with setting up a RAW printer queue with native Windows drivers but eventually gave up on that. I deleted all printers and redid them from scratch and now only one of them works. Setup: Ubuntu Karmic 2.6.31-15-server #50-Ubuntu SMP Tue Nov 10 15:50:36 UTC 2009

Hi, I'm trying to add a printer driver to samba 2.2.7, part of the RedHat 9 distro. I have all the associated files under print$/W32X86 (I verified that they were where I thought they were from samba's POV by looking via smbclient). Below is the output from a getdriver command issued to a W2K PDC to get the names of all the required files for the particular printer: [Windows NT x86]

Has anyone had any success installing windows printer drivers onto a leopard-hosted print$ share? If I use the Add Printer Wizard method, if copies the driver files to \ \SERVER\print$\W32X86 then fails with an "Operation cannot be completed." If I use the rpcclient method I get a WERR_INVALID_PARAM error. Using the Adobe Generic PostScript driver as an example.

Hi all, Samba 3.0.7 and using CUPS printing. I am logged in as root to an XP Pro system, I have used the APW to install the XP drivers to all of my printers.

Using drivers straight from the HP website, the 9x driver installs fine, but it seems like I can't get any NT/2K drivers to

I'm trying to get Samba to print with CUPS and the universal postscript driver. I've followed the HOWTO at http://us4.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/CUPS-printing.html (a truely great work, IMO). However, I cannot get a WinXP or Win2K machine to automatically install the driver when I double-click on the printer after browsing the share. I've done everything up
