Hi, I'm looking for a configuration to print from Windows to my new Office Jet which is connected to my Linux box. I can use the CUPS driver, but I prefer to use the native HP drivers. Only thing is that I didn't find any explanation of WHAT to put in /etc/samba/drivers, why do i need to work

Geoff, Thanks for your help and links, but I still seem to have 1 problem: I can see the printer in windows, it shows the generic (crappy) driver, but whenever I try to print the Windows test page, all I get is the postscript text printed, not the test page itself.. Thanks, Hetz On Mon, Mar 17,
