AW: Automatic driver downloads (was: [Samba] [semi-ot] Printing w/ NT, automated driver download and modifying printer settings)

[Sven Schwengel]

In my case it works, but I don´t use cups. I tried to install the xp
driver for my kyocera fs600 several times from the xp box and it had not
work.
After I did the same procedure from a nt box, it still works. I had the
same problems with the pol editor and nt policies will only work after
add them from a nt box.

Actually, I don't think that it matters.  I managed to install drivers 
both from a Win2K box, and also "by hand" via cupsaddsmb.  This includes

both printer specific drivers from HP, and generic Adobe PS drivers as 
well.
