similar to: Samba printer and Vista

Version: Samba 3.0.25b OS: CentOS 5 x86_64 I've had printer driver delivery working OK to 32 bit clients for a while. I used cupsaddsmb to set that up originally. We recently added some 64 bit Vista client machines (yay). I created an x64 directory on the print$ share and followed the Samba HowTo instructions for finding and uploading a printer driver. The files are from a Vista 64 bit

Try : killall -s HUP /usr/sbin/smbd is causes that smbd rereads its config.

Hello, I am trying to install automatic printer driver download and install. I am running Samba 3, as a PDC, on RedHat 7.3. It seems everything is setup correctly, although I cannot get the rpcclient to 'see' my printer. Please notice these two printers listed below ar the same (lp & HP2300). [root@mercury log]# rpcclient -U=root localhost Password: rpcclient $> enumprinters

Hi Kurt, You are absolutely right (as always). After restarting smb, rpcclient setdriver works fine. May be - in the next future release - cupsaddsmb will work. Thank you very much.

Hi there, I've had a mighty battle to get printing working with Samba in the last two days. Firstly, to get anything working at all (using CUPS), I had to use disable spoolss = yes use client driver = yes Once I finally managed to get the printer (an HP LaserJet Series II) working with locally installed drivers, I turned my interest to getting it to work with either Windows drivers stored

I have just run into two printer drivers (Brother 1870N and HP Deskjet 890cxi) that seem to crash windows explorer as soon as they are uploaded to the samba server. I have tried using "default devmode=yes" with no success for both drivers. I have found an horrible workaround that maybe should be useful to others, so I'll describe it here. First, uninstall the offending

I have a problem installing a printer shared to windows. When I go to properties on the printer I have shared I get Function address 0x606407fe caused a protection fault.

Hello, I created a print server SERVIMP(*) with samba 2.2.8, i put all the printers at it. I installed the drivers one by one (win98 and win2k) using the APW of win2000. The drivers seems to be correctly settled. Then on SERVIMP I execute with rpcclient the assignment of the printers to the drivers with $> setdriver printer "driver" i get success with this. I can then

Hello, I want to setup a new print server using cups and samba for our new institue. Everything is working well (printing from unix and windows), but the driver download for the windows clients won't work and I have no idea what's wrong. Currently i have installed cups-1.15 and samba 2.2.5 on top of suse 8.0 using the rpm-files from Lars Mueller(?)(ftp.suse.com/pub/people/lmuelle) and

I'm trying to change my Samba setup from LPD to CUPS, with little success. I've followed [and re-followed] the setup documentation from CUPS and I just can't get Samba to recognize my printer. The catch is - it sort of recognizes it :-( First I added these lines to my smb.conf: ========================================= [global] load printers = yes printing = cups printcap name =

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

Hola folks, I'm experiencing a problem trying to get drivers to upload/download properly with Samba 2.2.5 and CUPS. I've read the various HOWTOs and have managed to get drivers to upload, except that it errors out, saying that it was unable to apply the changes. The driver files do successfully upload to the proper directory on the Samba server. If I try to do things by hand:

Hi All, My problem is that when I "connect" a printer by right-clicking it on \\smbhost\printers (on a Windows client), it seems to install the printer fine (without error), but I can't print (it seems to print, no error message or so, but it never makes it to the printer). I was able to install the printer drivers both via the Windows GUI (wizard) and via rpcclient (please see

Hi, I have a samba 2.2.2 on HP-UX 11, serving a few printers. When I install a new driver via win2000' printer properties dialogue it works fine. When I try to do the same from unix with the imprints package, ist screwed. The driver files get uploaded, but they don't register as an installed driver, with rpcclient 'enumdrivers' I don't 'see' them. When I set the

Hello, I'm trying to use rpcclient 'setdriver' as an unprivileged user; a special lpadmin user with very limited rights has been created, and ownership of the location of driver files (/home/PrintDrivers) given to him. when executing the smbclient and rpc commands like cupsaddsmb does, nearly everything works fine, except the last command: when i issue an rpcclient localhost -U

Hi, i want to install the Adobe-PS Drivers into samba, so that the Clients can download them. I first had Samba 2.2.3 from debian woody, where the cupsaddsmb program did'nt work at all. I the upgraded to samba 2.2.7 and tried to install all the drivers by hand using rpcclient. Now I've got 2 problems: First one is that I cannot deinstall the various drivers from the servers list.

Hi, I'm having a strange problem with cupsaddsmb ... it fails whenever I try to use it while using the rpcclient command ... the "addriver" command just fails (like below). Does anyone know what is wrong with the command cupsaddsmb is passing to rpcclient? Adding drivers through the windows point and print works fine ... this is samba 2.2.8a, Windows PDC. As far as I can tell,
