Mandi! L.P.H. van Belle via samba
  In chel di` si favelave...

> I instaled that driver on a Debian Buster, samba 4.11.3 server and i was able to publish it to my windows 7 and 10 clients. 

I publish KM drivers mee too, without fuss.


My experience is that drivers does not install correctly on clients,
because need local administrative privileges.

Eg:

a) drivers get loaded to print$ flawlessy

(supposing to have a box WITHOUT that driver installed, of course)

b) if i connect the printer by a unprivileged user, does not work (eg,
 printer connect, but does not print, thow an error...).

c) if i try with a privileged user, works as expected (and clearly, all
 subsequent unprivileged users that try to conect the printer, works
 because the driver is just installed).


I don't think is a samba bug...
