Hi,
I'm having the same problem w/ samba v3.3.9 and Xerox 7346 drivers.
When I try to edit default driver properties I get function errors and
operation could not be completed (screenshots attached).
I'm currently working with Xerox 2nd level engineering on this. I'll
let you know if anything comes of it although I'm not feeling
particularly optimistic.
regards,
Ryan

I've a strange issue with a samba 3.4.3 print server. Everything is
fine with most printers, meaning drivers are assigned on server side
and automatically distributed to the clients as expected. However, I
fail to configure a Xerox document center 7435 the same way.
When I attempt to assign a driver to the printer, from a windows
client with admin privileges, I get an 'unexpected error occured in
the print driver, close this windows and retry' error message, twice.
More precisely, I can see initial renaming of the printer according to
the driver name, then the error occurs, then the printer get renamed
to '' (which is a bit painful :P)
I previously had a slightly different model (document center pro
c2636) which was working fine. The other working printers are not
xerox ones.
The driver is OK: it works fine when accessing the printer directly,
and also when used from a windows print server. Also, I tried other
variants (such as PCL driver instead of PS one), without success.
When configuring the same printer from a Windows system, I had to
configure it with raw socket connection, because IPP connection didn't
allowed me to share it at all, and CIFS connection to the print queue
caused me some troubles (the printer didn't appeared in the 'fax and
printers list' of the server from remote hosts).
The underlying printing system, cups, works perfectly. I've tried to
switch from IPP to raw socket connection, because of the behaviour
changes found with windows server, it didn't change anything.
I performed a network capture both on server and client side while
triggering the error. The result is available as:
http://www.zarb.org/~guillomovitch/server.pcap
http://www.zarb.org/~guillomovitch/client.pcap
I can see some suspicious messages such as:
WINREG OpenKey response, Error: WERR_BADFILE
SPOOLSS GetPrinterData response, PrintProcCaps_NT EMF 1.008, File
not found (pathname error)
SPOOLSS SetPrinterDataEx response, Access denied
But nothing really useful.
I'm joining my samba configuration file. I'm using mandriva 2009.0 as
server, and windows XP enterprise as client.
Any hint appreciated.
