The driver writers apparently pushed the duplex settings,
watermarking, etc... into the print processor which is only
available when using EMF printing.  If you have correctly
initialized the printer settings on the Samba server and still
are missing some options, then there is probably not much that
can be done at this time.

[Samba] Missing Driver Options

[Daniel Haas]

Hi all,

I work with a CUPS/Samba Printserver and I allocate the drivers via the point n 
print methode. 

Yesterday I get a new HP Laserjet 2420. I installed the HP-driver with the APW 
of Windows XP. Everything seams to be ok. I printed a testpage without any 
problems. In the next step I tested the new options of this printer 
(duplex,...). But I saw, that the driver did not offer this options.

I made a local installation of this driver and I got the options like 
duplex-print,... . Than I deleted the driver on the server and made a manual 
installation via rpcclient. That worked well. But after the download and a view 
into the properties I got the same problem.

The driver works like the most HP-Drivers with unidrv.dll, unidrvui.dll, 
unires.dll and stdnames.dll. I have installed several HP Printers. Can that be 
a problem (wrong version)? 

I am not sure, wether this problem associates to Samba. But I wonder that the 
local installation is correct.

The version of samba is 3.0.13 on a SuSE Linux 9.3.

Thanks for your help
