Re: [Samba] Printer driver problem in 3.0.28/31
On Tuesday 23 September 2008 07:59:58 am William Jojo wrote: Anyone see this before? While I haven't seen ths specific issue before, it may be part of a class of issues around drivers setting data associated with the printer instance on the share. Often called the data blob. When the blob isn't set properly on the share, drivers can malfunction in strange and unpleasant ways. My suggestions are: i. Install the driver locally and use the MS property page for the print share to load the driver again. Set some of the data properties (eg. font or duplexer). This may force the blob to get set. ii. Alternatively, you could change your print architecture to use the standard MS PostScript driver and Ghostscript to convert the print jobs to the printer's language (PCL). The PostScript driver appears to avoid blob related issues.

My conclusion is that this is generally part of their efforts to tighten security. Regards, Mark Gannon -- “Why dont you write books people can read?

Re: [Samba] HP Deskjet 6940 and 6988
Glenn, You might consider changing your printing architecture so that instead of using the Windows print driver for the HP Deskjet, you create the printer in Linux using the standard CUPS procedures for that printer and then share the standard Postscript driver on the samba share. In this configuration, you avoid any problems with the HP Deskjet driver for windows. My experience is that the HPIJS driver bundled with most versions of Linux is quite good. A pretty good description of how to make this configuration work can be found at: http://www.enterprisenetworkingplanet.com/netsysm/article.php/3621876 Regards, Mark Gannon -- “Why dont you write books people can read?

Normally these are referred to as version 2 and version 3. I believe, while Win2K and XP support both versions, I believe Vista only supports version 3 drivers. You can tell which is installed on your samba system by looking in the print$ share under the W32X86 directory. There should be two directories labelled 2 and 3. Version 2 drivers go in the 2 directory and version 3 drivers go in the 3 directory. If the drivers are under the 2 directory, you may want to update the drivers associated with the share to use the ones bundled with Vista.

[Samba] Rpcclient adddriver Samba 3.0.25
Hello, I'm trying to use rpcclient to add a driver to a Samba 3.0.25 running on Gentoo. When I run the script below, rpcclient prints out the same message as if --help was submitted as the only switch. #!/bin/bash -x RPC=/usr/local/samba/bin/rpcclient ARCH='Windows NT R4000' #ARCH='Windows NT x86' DRIVER='HP LaserJet 4Si/4Si MX PS:pscript.dll:hp4si_v4.ppd:pscriptui.dll:pscript.hlp:NULL:raw:NULL' SYSTEM=scooby $RPC -U markg -c adddriver $ARCH $DRIVER $SYSTEM The correct files are copied to: /var/lib/samba/printers/W32MIPS. And there is a directory named 2 under the W32MIPS directory. I've also tried adding it from the rpcclient prompt, which produced the following error message: WERR_UNKNOWN_PRINTER_DRIVER Any suggestions as to how I can accomplish adding this driver would be greatly appreciated.
