I am trying to install printer drivers on XP workstation using APW, and the printers are avalible on linux box (server) and shared over network using samba 3.0.
I could add printer, associate driver, delete driver using rpcclient. But the requirement is that the printer will be added using rpcclient and user must be able to add drivers using APW method locally on XP/Windows system.
When ever I tired to do this, by double clicking on the printer at explore, it is trying to locate driver and asking for the installation. If I opt for installation, though the printer drivers are available it is giving error message "windows cannot locate a suitable printer driver. Contact your administrator for help locating and installing a suitable driver".
Here are the my configuration detail,
[printers]
available = yes
browseable = yes
comment = All Printers
path = /var/ispQ
guest ok = yes
printable = yes
writeable = no
public = yes
[print$]
path = /usr/project/isp/var/printers
guest ok = yes
browseable = yes
read only = yes
write list = root @printeradmin
admin users = root @printeradmin
create mask = 0777
directory mask = 0777
force create mode = 0777
directory mode = 0777
force directory mode = 0777
[global]
load printers = yes
local master = no
dns proxy = no
winbind gid = 10000-20000
winbind uid = 10000-20000
guest ok = yes
printing = lprng
show add printer wizard = yes
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
#log level = 10
log file = /var/samba/smbd.log
addprinter command = /scripts/addprinter
enumports command = /scripts/listports
printcap name = name
encrypt passwords = yes
guest account = guest
max connections = 50
lock directory = /var/locks
username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
browseable = yes
please help me in solving this problem. The same configuration did work fine with samba 2.X version. This started occured when we migrated to samba3.0
