Does this mean that every print driver must be installed on every machine
(for every user)?
I see this in the man page -
This parameter MUST not be able enabled on a print share which has valid
print driver installed on the Samba server
I understand (pretty much) what "disable spoolss" and "use client driver"
does but what is the behaviour of the no/yes configuration. It seems that
"use client driver=yes" implies "disable spoolss=no"
