Hi, some weeks ago I wrote to this list about a problem I have saving print properties (samba 3.4.7 - ubuntu-lucid + XP-pro)
I never managed to solve it, I also tried with samba 3.6+ (Ubuntu precise) but had aother problems I wrote about in this list ending opening a bug [1]. Now I had to go back to my 3.4.7 installation. I'd like at least to bettere understand how print properties work so that I can cope better with the situation. In my setup the drivers are distributed by the server, client do realize they need the driver and server correctly serves them, the problem is that the page format is alwayes set to 'letter' rather than 'A4'. I have roaming profiles. I really need to fix this even thought some workaround. Can someone tell me which are the components that store the print properties? If this is already explained somewhere, please give me the URL, I wasn't able to find it. 1. If I browse \\server\(server and fax) and I configure properties, where are the changes saved? 2. When an end user configures the printer where does ther properties should go (I have roaming profiles)? In the profile? in a registry? 3. If the domain/local Administrator changes the properties in the printer on the client via settings | printers how does that change relate to settings in 1 and 2? 4. In a working setup, is there a way to force the paper format *after* a user has already logged in and changed the properties? thanks in advance for any explanation thanks sandro *:-) [1] https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9468 -- Sandro Dentella *:-) http://www.reteisi.org Soluzioni libere per le scuole http://sqlkit.argolinux.org SQLkit home page - PyGTK/python/sqlalchemy -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
