I have a similar issue on my HP LaserJet P2015n printer.
I've followed your hint and add the "PrinterDriverData\DocUiHideFlags" to
remote samba registry, but it did not work with this HP LaserJet P2015n
printer.
I've post it here:
http://www.nabble.com/Different-%22print-preference-dialog%22-between-windows-local-printer-and-samba-shared-printer-td18583819.html
There are many differences between the registry settings of samba shared
printer and windows local one.
