The reason is because in the man page I read "This parameter MUST not be enabled on a print share which has valid print driver installed on the Samba server." But in fact, I want to install printer drivers to the Samba server, and from best I can tell, it is installing them successfully. The files are going into the correct path, and Windows is not returning an error.

Re: [Samba] Samba 3 printing and CUPS
Hi Kristofer, Have you tried adding the directive "use client drivers = yes" in the printers section of smb.conf?

I have been able to add drivers to the server just fine, but when a client connects to a printer and tries to set it up, Windows 7 is seeing a null printer type, so it is not finding the appropriate drivers. Windows 7 says "The '' printer driver is not installed on this computer …." So it appears that the type of printer is null when it gets passed back to windows 7, and it doesn't know what kind of printer to search for drivers for. CUPS has the correct printer models listed in it.

[Samba] Samba 3 printing and CUPS
I am trying to set up Samba 3 with CUPS printers, and installing the drivers to the server.
