following this guide http://de.samba.org/samba/docs/man/printing.html#id2933004
i try to add network printers on clients via startup-script
my problem: samba should just be the "driver provider" and not spool print jobs...those should go directly to the printers
it should just give the needed driver to the client and tell him, that he should use a TCP/IP port and NOT the samba-printing-port
my script:
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /in /n "\\sambapdc\copy07.my.domain" /r "IP_192.168.1.1"
192.168.1.1 = TCP/IP Port of the Printer "copy07"
but it doesn't work -> the printer maps perfectly but the port is "Samba Printer Port" and i can't "add a new port", because "this request is not supported"
hence the printer is not shared in my smb.conf (just the neccessary CUPS entries to give a driver to the clients), the "Samba Printer Port" points to "nowhere"
-- smb.conf snip --
[global]
printing = CUPS printcap name = CUPS load printers = yes
[print$] comment = Printer Driver Download Area path = /sambadrivers browseable = yes guest ok = yes read only = yes write list = root
[printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba browseable = no public = yes guest ok = yes writable = no printable = yes printer admin = root
please help me ask me, if i forgot something
