Yep, that's option #4. Especially when used with the CUPS driver for Windows. You can still fetch those PPD files for use with #3, but it requires manual intervention. > With a raw print queue, you upload Windows > printer drivers for each printer to the Samba server > (probably using the Add Printer Wizard). Yep. It's a PITA each time you add a printer. On a smaller network with 1-2 printers, do it once, forget it. But on larger network, with more printers or -- better yet -- changing printers, it's a Godsend. Especially when you have certain printers choking due to users killing settings, things that you can override (like removing options). > Raw print queues really don't have the shortcomings in > functionality that you seem to be saying they do. Unless you're installing several different printer drivers on a Windows client, and the vendor drivers start conflicting. -- Bryan J.
