When I setup HP Laserjet 4050TN printers in Samba-2.2.2 on NT it sets up the
printers correctly in the print$ share, adding an extra tray and duplex unit.
When I add these printers on a NT4 machine as a normal domain user it picks up
the extra trays ok, but if I add the printers to W2K machines there is no
extra tray or duplex unit. Setting up the printer on a W2K machine and adding
it to a W2K machine works, but similarly adding it to NT4 it looses the extra
tray and duplex unit.
This doesn't seem to happen with other types of HP printer (4000 and 4M+). Is
there a problem with this printer driver? Should I be storing the print$ share
in a separate directory for NT and W2K, i.e. add %a ??
