Hi,
I have an old printer server running Samba v2.2.7. It's due to be
phased out this summer, but in the mean time I need to add a new print
driver. In order to capture the list of files, I ran the command:
make_printerdef hp4100p6.inf "HP LaserJet 4100 PCL 6" > files.def
Only 6 of the required files were not already installed in the driver
directory, and so I added just those 6 files.
I then tried the command "rpcclient socrates -U <user>%<pwd> -c
"adddriver '`cat files.def`'". The response is:
Usage: adddriver <Environment>\
<Long Printer Name>:<Driver File Name>:<Data File Name>:\
<Config File Name>:<Help File Name>:<Language Monitor Name>:\
<Default Data Type>:<Comma Separated list of Files>
I'm assuming that the problem is the "<Environment>", but I have no idea
what I need to put there.
Can anybody help me out here?
Thanks,
Rob
