[Samba] Unable to upload printer drivers

[L.P.H. van Belle]

Which drivers? Do you have a link so i can test them myself. 

Im running almost same settings and i just installed the samsung universal 3 driver from a win10 X64 pc ( as DOM\Adminstrator) 

This one; 
?Samsung Universal Print Driver voor Windows  15.9 MB-25.4 MB SamsungUniversalPrintDriver3.exe  

On debian 9, samba 4.9.6 

My first guess here is, incorrect folder rights, what is in the windows event logs? 


My Settings are like any member server (ad backend) + this part. 

##### PRINTSERVER PART #######
    #enable asu support = yes # NOT TESTED YET. 
 
    ## Enabling spoolssd
    rpc_server:spoolss = external
    rpc_daemon:spoolssd = fork
    spoolss:architecture = Windows x64
    spoolssd:prefork_min_children = 5     
    spoolssd:prefork_max_children = 25    
    spoolssd:prefork_spawn_rate = 5       
    spoolssd:prefork_max_allowed_clients = 100
    spoolssd:prefork_child_min_life = 60   
    load printers = yes

[print$]
   comment = Printer Drivers
   path = /var/lib/samba/printers
   acl_xattr:ignore system acl = yes
   browseable = yes
   writable = yes
   guest ok = no
   write list = root, administrator, @"Domain Admins", @lpadmin, @"Print Operators"

[printers]
   comment = All Printers
   path = /home/samba/printing/spool
   acl_xattr:ignore system acl = yes
   browseable = yes
   printable = yes
   printing = CUPS

And ive set all correct right for the printer shares from a windows client. 
Due to  acl_xattr:ignore system acl = yes
So if your going to use this, you MUST set all right again from windows and with a DOM\Adminsitrator user or member. 


Greetz,
