I removed my print$ stuff and recreated it and configured it with
Windows ACLs (acl_xattr enabled in [global], like you have it). I had
added the domain admin to the filesystem ACLs on print$ with full access
(https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setup_and_configure_file_shares_with_Windows_ACLs#Change_permissions_on_folders_of_a_share)



I can upload the x64 driver, assign it to a printer and preconfigure the
driver for the users. User can connect to the printer and retrieve the
driver with the preconfigured options. So it doesn't seem to be an issue
with posix/Windows ACLs.

Yes. But the wording in the documentation isn't choosen very well. The
posix ACLs are still working in 4.1 and it's not planed to change that,
as far as I know. It's only recommended to use the Windows ACLs yet.

I'll change that.

Set
   max log size = 0
do disable the log rotation.



BTW: When I tell the add printer wizzard the folder with the Ricoh
driver, then I can choose between two drivers, that are inside this
package. I had choosen the one named "PCL6 Driver vor Universal Print".
