Hi
Hopefully someone can help me with this printing problem. Currently
running samba 2.2.5 on redhat 7.2. I've set up a shared printer which can
be access through Samba and that part works fine. Followed SAMBA
documentation on setting up a print$ share and placed printer drivers in
that share. When I create the printer on Win2K Pro using the Add Printer
Wizard, it doesn't automatically upload driver files to my client. Below
are the main points of my smb.conf file
[global]
printcap name = /etc/printcap
load printers = yes
printing = bsd
print command = /usr/bin/lpr -P%p -r %s
printcap file = /etc/printcap
min print space = 2000
printer admin = @ntadmin
security = share ; so anyone can print without
having an account on samba
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = yes
public = yes
guest ok = yes
writable = yes
printable = yes
[print$]
path = /usr/local/samba/print
read only = yes
browseable = yes
guest ok = yes
write list = @ntadmin
