Hi Everyone,

Does anyone have any luck getting Windows print job to hold by default?

We are currently running samba 3-3.6.23-45 with cups-1.4.2-50 on centos 6.5
and have a hp desginjet z5200 printer queue.  The z5200 printer queue
lpoption is set up with the  "job-hold-until=indefinite".  Printing from a
linux system, the jobs are held until release.  However, printing from a
Windows7 system to the same print queue, the jobs are not held.  Is there
an option with samba to hold the print job?
