Sorry, I cannot access the "Advanced Tab". If I choose "Connect" after a right-click on the printer in the "Printers" folder on samba server, then click "Ok", it starts "Add Printer Wizard". From here, if I choose "Cancel", I go back to "Printers" folder and nothing more. If I choose "Have Disk...", it does not work too 'cause I do not have "*.inf" file on my [print$] share. Right-click on the virtual printer on more time and choose "Properties" or "Connect..." open again the same windows =( I've thought about one thing last night. Is the user ID important when copying/installing driver from Windows to samba [print$] share? I explain. I do not have Admin password, so I've copied drivers from windows using a share as a "normal" samba user, do the "adddriver" and other stuff as this user. I only got Admin password for the "setdriver" stuff (you understand, I cannot ask admin for his password every 5 minutes =/ ). Is it important to be admin all driver installation long or samba does not care? One more thing. Do you thing the problem could come from windows (win2k, sp4)? I do not have my own windows box to do my test, so I ask users if I can use their boxes. From two different boxes, it seems windows behavior is not the same. Could the problem come from my "main" windows box? > > > I wonder if the problem could occure 'cause the printer is > > a virtual printer? > > No, Samba doesn't care.
