[Samba] Can't install printer driver automatically for some printers

[Emiliano Ticci]

Hi all,

I've published some printers through samba and cups, and also published
drivers to print$ using cupsaddsmb. I'm in an Active Directory environment
(DC are Windows 2003).

All seems to work with no errors, however Point'n'Print works only for some
printers. For two printers I receive instead the message "The server for the
XXX printer does not have the correct printer driver installed".

The output for of the command "rpcclient localhost -c 'getdriver XXX'"

is IDENTICAL for all printers (except for the name of the .ppd file,
obviously).

I appreciate any suggestion in order to solve the problem. My smb.conf is:
