Hello all!
I'm still not shure about the reason, but perhaps someone become an idea:
I think, the issue has something to do with the ChangeID of the printer.
I can reproduce the following behaviour:
1. Trying to make a clean install from Vista fails with thid "invalid
paramenter" error (0x00000057)
2. If I change a registry value of this printer remotely from a
different machine (XP client) => Vista installs the printer after that!
3. Now I change some default printer settings from the XP client (= set
the devicemode) => 50-70% chance, that Vista will no longer install this
printer from samba.
4. If I change some registry values again => installation succeeds.
I've seen strange ChangeId values (e.g. 0x7de4133e). Don't know where
they are from.
Anyone, who sees a light with this information?
Bye,
Martin

Is anyone else seeing Vista (final) will not "connect" to a samba-hosted
printer? I'm getting error 0x00000057. I can connect to the port only
and install a local driver, though. It's just that the drivers will not
load
correctly. The drivers do load partly, because I can see driver-specific
attributes if I go to "Properties" rather than "Connect". But a test print
from there fails also.
Samba server: Fedora Core 6 i386, samba-3.0.23c-2
Vista client, Vista Business (32-bit) final
Printer: HP LaserJet 4000 PCL6, driver from XP SP2.
The same printer served from a Windows 2003 server
will connect just fine to a Vista client.
Vista will connect to samba shared directories just fine.
Any ideas?
Pim
