This occurs with Samba downloaded drivers of an installed printer. When attempting to view the printer properties you receive the following error: ?Function address 0x2d04193 caused a protection fault.

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

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?

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

I'm testing a printserver with Samab/ Cups. Every time I want to upload the driver to samba for printing I get the following error: "Printer settings could not be saves. Access denied" I chmod 777 the driver directory and spool directory. I gave specified the user as printer admin in the share. My firewall is disabled. Why is it still giving me the access denied error? Best

Hi, while using cups as a print system and sharing all the printers with samba to windows clients, is it possible to 'view' a newly created printer in the browse list without restarting smbd ? (samba 2.2.7) Holger

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

Greetings Admins, The howto details setting the device mode using a windows client: http://us4.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/printing.html#id2552900 Is there a way to script this process? We support 260+ printers and it's a pain in the ass. (My wrist is hurting!) regards, Ryan

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:

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). However, now, when attempting to check the properties of that printer from a WinXP client (pre SP2) I only get an error and the properties

Hi all, I am running samba 3.0.6 on Linux and am wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to delete a print driver from the driver database? I have around 20 printers running off of this print server and occasionally we remove all of a certain type of printer. Also, for some reason, the drivers sometimes seem to become corrupt and it would be nice to be able to entirely remove a driver and

Hello, (please excuse poor translations of german Windows-GUI-items) a customer of ours has a strange problem trying to install a printer driver on the print$ share.

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 can install and print to the HP from any of the workstations. I can install the Okidata just fine, but when I try to print from Word, Excell, or any application Dr. Watson comes to visit. I get

Is anyone else seeing Vista (final) will not "connect" to a samba-hosted printer? I'm getting error 0x00000057. I can connect to the port only and install a local driver, though. It's just that the drivers will not load correctly. The drivers do load partly, because I can see driver-specific attributes if I go to "Properties" rather than "Connect". But a test

Hi everyone. I am trying to upload the printer drivers to the Samba domain controller. I an logging in as root, and I browse to the printer, select properties.. etc. I get as far as seeing the files upload and then I am returned to the printer dialog.

I think I have narrowed down the problem why smbd processes are soaking up so much CPU on our file server. Here are some selected samples from strace output as I attached to the offending smbd process: Culprit #1 I took three sample snapshots, each lasted for several seconds, and I took them minutes apart from each other. I noticed many lines involved stat'ing the a single file in the
