I have two very similar printers set up on CUPS and Samba is configured to share the drivers. I had been playing around with setting up a RAW printer queue with native Windows drivers but eventually gave up on that. I deleted all printers and redid them from scratch and now only one of them works.

Setup:
Ubuntu Karmic 2.6.31-15-server #50-Ubuntu SMP Tue Nov 10 15:50:36 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Samba Version 3.4.0
What issues did you have with windows drivers?

The driver for HP 4650 downloaded from hp.com wouldn't install through APW. I also tried doing it through rpcclient which worked so much as I followed every step in the Samba guide for it with no errors, but Windows XP wasn't able to download the driver files from the Samba server.

Try using v3.3.x and see if you have better luck.

I am not too keen on downgrading, as I am setting up a domain that needs to be Windows 7 compatible.

I did some more testing today with the postscript drivers and it seems there is a "reference" for gyldendal somewhere which screws things up because if I name the queue differently (same .ppd etc) everything works :S

I tried deleting every reference to it from the Windows registry as well as in Samba, as far as deleting the 3 .tdb files in /var/lib/samba before reinstalling but it is still impossible to have a printer called gyldendal.

Are there any other files besides the 3 nt*.tdb which hold information about printers I could delete?

Thanks,

Torkil
