We're using a couple of HP printers (2200, 4200, 3390) using the HP PCL
6 printer driver.

Printer drivers are installed on the samba (3.0.24) box, connecting,
driver installation and printing work OK.

Problem: using the same driver version with the printer shared by a
windows box gives some additional options like - brochure printing
 - putting serveral pages on one sheet

Any Idea why those options are gone from printer settings if the printer
is sahred by a samba box and/or how to get them back?

Thanks, Martin

You'll also miss options like "watermark" and so. All options that are provided by a custom PrintProcessor are missing. The driver asks the print processor about it's features and Samba (which "emulates" the dump winprint print processor) responses with a very limited set of features.

Unfortunatly there's no way to force Windows to execute print processor locally with remotly shared queues.
