Hy there,

I just installed samba 2.2.7 but still have some troubles installing 
printer drivers.

If log on as printer admin and install a printer driver for Win2000. 
In the settings tab I change the device setting, e.g. Printer Memory, 
Installed Paper trays and so on. 

If I then log on as ordinary user I can change the printing options 
(like  paper orientation, which is remembered by the printer drives as 
it is supposed to be!) and I can't change the device settings 
(odrinary users don't have to play around here, so that's pretty 
fine). 

So far so good.

BUT: in the device settings there are now the default values, i.e. 
printer memory is gone, installed trays also gone, and so on.

If I log on as printer admin everything there again (as long as I 
don't log on as ordinary user...)

What's going on there? Have I set any permissions wrong? 

Already tried installing the whole thing again, no changes...

Please send replies also as E-Mail.

Thanks and Greetings,

  Ulli
