Hi,
I am trying to add automatic driver install, its giving me ADOBEPS5.DLL
file not found error message.
You should read the man page of "cupsaddsmb". It would tell you that
the preparation to be completed *before* running the command consists,
amongst other things, to place the Windows driver files into the
"/usr/share/cups/drivers/" repository..... (Unfortunately the license
prohibits the free re-distribution of the Adobe driver files.)
Where can I get these files?
From any Windows 2K/XP workstation that shares a PostScript printer....
It will have a share named "print$" where it offeres driver files for
"Point'n'Print" installations. Try this:
smbclient -U windowsusername //windowshostname/print\$
cd w32x86
cd 2
mget ADOBEPS*.*
Another option is to go to the Adobe website and search for their
PostScript driver.
Cheers,
Kurt
