As a follow-up, this was fixed by adding the drivers as the domain
"Administrator" account.
Simple fix for an ugly looking problem :)

Subject: [Samba] Unable to add point and print drivers
Hello,
We have been using samba 4.0.9 with good success so far and are looking to add
the ability for users to print from network printers shared by Samba.
The printing part works fine using coupling with lp and cups. In order to
automate this fully for the users, we would like to enable point and print
drivers.
The print$ share is accessible with no issues and is configured as below :
[print$]
comment = Point and Print Printer Drivers
path = /usr/local/samba/var/print
read only = no
writeable = yes
browseable = yes
Some time back, a colleague has been able to add 2 drivers and we are able to
use these drivers successfully.
We now want to add new printers and have been unsuccessful in doing so. The
transfer of the driver files happens but for some unknown reason it fails and
reverts everything.
The error that we have on Windows is :
Unable to install <Insert printer name>, User Mode, x64 driver. Operation could
not be completed (error 0x0000001f)
The directory that holds the drivers has been chmod'ed 777 just to make sure
this was not a permission issue. And to double check, we are able to manually
add files to this share with no problems.
Samba logs are not saying anything during this operation and I have run out of
things to try to make this work.
What are the steps that we can take to try to resolve this issue ?
Thank you in advance for your help,
Antoine Benkemoun
