Hello =) I just redo it to be sure. Neither "Connect..." nor "Properties" work =( If I choose "Properties", a box appears with message "Printer properties cannot be displayed. Operation could not be completed". If I choose "Connect...", windows says "The server on which the 'PdfPrinter' printer resides does not have the correct printer driver installed. If you want to install the driver on your local computer, click OK.". It does not download driver from samba server =( I wonder if the problem could occure 'cause the printer is a virtual printer? By the way, checking one more time samba doc, I can "see" driver from windows (right-click on background of folder Printers, Server Properties, Drivers) _BUT_ I cannot "see" printer properties doing a right-click on it as said above. So , from doc's point of view (Chapter 18. Classical Printing Support/Check Samba for Driver Recognition), I pass the second and third test, but not the first one. Thanks for your help =) I keep searching...
