now i'm confused.  do you have anything in your /etc/cups/printers.conf ?
what step are you up to in the howto?  which howto?  i've got the 'cups
software administrators manual' and 'printing support in samba 3.0'

what reference are you going by?

regards
Matthew

I tried "cupsaddsmb -v PDFprinter", but system complaints that it cannot
find PDFprinter.ppd. I tried copy PDFprinter.ppd to almost every folder, but
still no luck. I'm doing this right? Where should I put PDFprinter.ppd?
