hi, since I upgraded some winxp-pro sp2 client to sp3, my samba-shared printers are no-longer usable :-/ With sp3, if I run notepad and choose the men? File-Print, the "print" window hangs and does not show any printer for about 1 minute! The same thing happens when I click on the men? Start-settings-Printer and faxes. With sp2, everything works correctly and I can browse all my

For you Win2K folks that are using disable spoolss=yes you can use this command below to install printers....I will try and explain some of the parts: rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /f \\pc1\software\hp4500n\HP231Ipc.inf /m "HP Color LaserJet 4500 PCL 5c" /r "\\pc3\hp4500n" /b "Color Printer - Third Floor" rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /f

How do you manage printers on Windows workstations? What I mean, suppose you have many classrooms, different printers (which sometimes change) in these classroms - how do you manage which workstation (or a group of them) will use which printer? So far I've been using WPKG for that - as I described here: http://wpkg.org/wiki/index.php/Printer_configuration But somehow I feel it

I don't know the final answer BUT if you have something simmilar to a cyber-cafe LAN (I mean, users use all the computers, and maybe some users come back to login with the same name) then you have to install a printer only once in a computer, loging as the administrator and installing drivers. Then what users will have to do is JUST add the printer without installing. I know that it's

hi there following this guide http://de.samba.org/samba/docs/man/printing.html#id2933004 i try to add network printers on clients via startup-script my problem: samba should just be the "driver provider" and not spool print jobs...those should go directly to the printers it should just give the needed driver to the client and tell him, that he should use a TCP/IP port and NOT the

Cups 1.2.7 Debian Etch with Samba 3.0.24 Clients: WinXP SP3 (with Firewall completely off for testing) When I define a printer specifically in smb.conf, they show up as shared printers in WinXP. But when I follow the normal way (see below) to load all from cups they don't. I followed mainly the latest SAMBA-HOWTO (chapter 21-22) The only error I see in log.smbd when accessing the

For Win2K, I've been using RunDLL32 printui.dll,printuientry to do a bunch of different printer related stuff (most notably, mapping printers and setting the default). Looks like NT4 doesn't have the same stuff. Is there anything classier I can use than NET USE under NT4 (without downloading something like Kixstart)? Thanks for your help. ---- _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ |Y#| | | |\/| |

Hi Jerry et al, I'm using the 3.0.1 release on Solaris 9 in security mode ADS. It works fine in general. But there are some problems with printer drivers. For ex the HP LJ 4/4M plus driver can not be set to 'A4' from 'letter' in the printing preferences. I use 'rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /p /t3 /n\\...' to get to the dialogue, so I'm pretty sure I try to

Is it possible to use some kind of netlogon script to add a printer? net use \\server\printert ??

Hello, I have Samba 3 PDC and win2k sp4 client. I would like to install printer on a machine globally, for all users. To do this, I use: net use X: \\server\unattended /user:domain\unattended password rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /q /y /ga /in /n \\server\HP2000C First line is mounting share (Administrator is not logged to the domain), and the second line is to install printer.

Hello Franz, Out of curisoity I tried to install the old Kyocera Universal drivers we use since a few years on an other samba server (4.6.5). Found the old version here https://www.rz.uni-osnabrueck.de/fileadmin/user_upload/Campuscard/Drucken/Treiber/win8/KyoceraClassicUniversalDriversCertified130315.zip. It also fails now and the OEMSETUP.INF file also contains an

Hey Samba team... I'll still buy you pizza! Anyway, trying to be good security folks, we had tossed in a global setting in smb.conf that root was an invalid user. No Windows client will ever have an account named that which they need to touch Samba with, and everyone knows it is bad bad bad to logon to your Linux box with root... but anyway, Samba sure seems to have an opinion about doing

Hello all Sorry for posting my query here, but did not have any success in getting feedback from linuxprinting.org/ openprinting.org forums. Planning to buy a new colour MFD or a Mono MFD & a Colour printer, for small buisiness office use. Could someone give feedback on HP Laserjet MFD M3027x and Laserjet 2840? Do all functions provided by the printers work on Linux? Any kinks? Do

Hi, We're setting up a PDC, and would like to have a login script to deliver the mapped drives to users in particular groups, and connect to printers. The printer drivers come from the [print$], share. Does anyone have any good resources for this? What's the easiest and simplest thing to get going --vbscript or batch files? Thanks, chris

While this doesn't relate specifically to Samba, I need to do this in a netlogon .bat file in a Samba domain. In my network, I have a printer hooked to a JetDirect so that it is a TCP/IP printer. Is there a way I can automatically have this printer mapped/added when the user is logged on? -- Andrew Gaffney
