publishing printer to ADS not working

[Martin Zielinski]

Hi,

Dunno. Others will be better candidates to answere this.
I allways thought that this is intended behaviour.

But the point is, that when you assign a driver, the registry key will 
be generated (and I think this is related to several driver properties). 
Then you should be able to publish your printer in ADS.

Bye,

Martin
