Hi all,
When setting up cups and Samba to make an anonymous printserver for a
lot of clients and 20 printers
i noticed this works fine :D
only 1 problem,
when adding a printer to windows, it asks about the driver.
in my samba config a pointed out a directory where the drivers are, but
i dont know what files to put in there,
just ppd files? or the contents of official driver cd? and should a make
that dir a samba share?
i really need to auto install the drivers.
btw, iam using Appsocket in cups, the printer + drivers work fine in cups :)
here is my smb.conf
/Centauri:/var/log/samba# testparm
Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
