To answer my own question/problem here in case anyone else needs to know...

Turns out I had a permission issue with where I was storing the drivers. I had that owned by printserver:printserver, and the user I was attempting to write with was KRH\jdown.

So... it ended up being a perms issue. I've since fixed this, and all is working correctly now!

thanks,
Jack

I kind of get the impression that printing is either not important to this list, or not many people find it difficult to sort out at all. If you are in the second category, please let me know where I'm going wrong, or what further information I should post to make the problem a bit clearer.

thanks,

Okay, I've got some progress now. Have fairly decent printserver working. I've been able to reproduce the same postive and negative results in two physical servers and now (finaly destination) a vmware server.

What's working:
ADS integration, this is a domain member
Printer driver installation (for a few drivers)
Printer installation / removal
Printing.

What's not working:
Most of the time, it will not let me install new printer drivers. In particular I'm not having any luck getting HP's Universal Print Driver v5.2 to load.

Everything is close, simpler drivers work well. I'm going to attempt to get this driver to load on another samba server 3.4.9 and then copy the tdb information over. Not sure at all if this will work.
