But not close enough yet...

It is a driver related issue, you can either install windows drivers onto the samba server. This has the benefit of when ever you add the printer to a client the drivers will be installed automagically.
That's the part I solved (partually because I cannot change any settings from a client XP)

If you are just after a quick fix, just add "use client driver = yes" to your global section. This will get rid of the error, which is pretty much harmless anyway.
Will try that tomorrow. I tried a couple things after my last post, the driver is 'loaded' automagically with the log-in script. (WSHNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\Server\Xerox7328 picked from: http://www.tek-tips.com/faqs.cfm?fid=5798 )

WORD however is doing weird.
I cannot change the paper-size (paper-size = something 'custom', which happen to be the same as 'letter')

I've the feeling that if I can change the setting in the driver from a cient XP, that word will be able to pick up all available paper formats too...

I hope I don't have to revert to RAW after all this. On the other hand things have to work on Wednesday...

Regards

Peter
