[Samba] samba printer share

[Bruno Rodrigues Neves]

Hi,

And if you add something like that into the smb.conf:

[global]
   disable spoolss = yes

[print$]
   comment = Printer Drivers
   path = /var/lib/samba/printers

[hp2300]
   path = /tmp
   writeable = yes
   browseable = yes
   printable = yes
   guest ok = yes

what happens?
