Good morning,
we are having a problem connecting to samba printers from Windows 7 clients.
When trying to connect, it fails with the following error: "Windows cannot
connect to the printer" and "Operation failed with error 0x000006d1".
Samba version 3.5.4 on CentOS 5.6
Windows 7 32-bit SP1
Printers HP Laserjet 9000, Colour Laserjet 9500, laserjet 4000
Drivers: tried with Universal print driver (the only available from HP) PS, PCL
5 and PCL 6
Interestingly enough, the drivers are copied to the client and I can see them
in the print management.
Windows XP, 2003 and 2008 clients have no problem whatsoever connecting and
printing.
I tried, for the sake of troubleshooting, to connect using a local printer and
specifying \\server\printer as port. It worked for the 4000 printer, but just
hangs for the 9500 when finalizing installation.
There was a similar issue reported on 2008, but changing the group policy of
"always render on server" did not help on Windows 7
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ricardo
