Hello Tomek, thanks for your quick reply. These are the drivers. They are the Adobe Postscript Drivers. The files reside in /usr/share/cups/drivers. coruscant ~ # ls -la /usr/share/cups/drivers insgesamt 2249 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 240 5. Jun 17:33 . drwxr-xr-x 10 root root 248 5. Jun 13:01 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 575573 11. Jul 2000 Adfonts.mfm -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1297280 23. Apr 2002 Adobeps4.drv -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 233348 23.

Jul 2000 Psmon.dll The command for cupsaddsmb was: cupsaddsmb -H coruscant -U root -h coruscant -v PagePro8L Password for root required to access coruscant via SAMBA: Running command: rpcclient coruscant -N -U'root%xxxx' -c 'setdriver PagePro8L PagePro8L' added interface ip=192.168.1.20 bcast=192.168.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Succesfully set PagePro8L to driver PagePro8L. But unfortuanately the directory of /etc/samba/drivers, as set in smb.conf is empty. I can browse the printer on the Win98 client, but it still asks for the driver. As far as I know it should get the drivers from the server, shouldn't it? Then I have tried to add the printer manually, to see where the problem is located. The result of this try was the content of the first posting. So I have no idea how to succeed.
