Hi

I just upgraded to the new version of Samba 2.2.7 a week ago and
everything works very nicely including upload of printer drivers to the
Samba server and setting the printer defaults (Paper Size, Dublex units,
extra Trays, Extra memory). I do this from a printer admin account from
a Windows 2000 client. When I install the printer on another Windows
2000 client as printer administrator this computer also knows about the
printer driver and defaults.

Unfortunately, this is not the case for a none administrator account.
>From this account I do have no problems installing the printer driver
from the Samba server but all the printer defaults are lost. This is
very annoying while I am not able to set these informations from a none
printer admin account. If someone can give me a clue of how to correct
this problem I will be very happy.

Best regards
Claus Svarer
