Topic: PrinterDriver location on sme8 ?

[fpausp]

I would like to install a networkprinter, the printer is already configured under the server-manager.

I can see the printer on the network but the driver could not be found during the installation on win7...

Where must I put the driver on sme filesystem ?

[TerryF]

As far as I know the printer driver is configured on the client PC, in this case under Win 7, download the windows driver from the manufacturer and install on the win7 PC

Edit: or look HERE

The win7 client should find the driver automaticly, where must I put it on sme filesystem ?

[TerryF]

Did you read the link

/home/e-smith/files/samba/printers

[fpausp]

I tried this path but the driver can not be found, is there anything else I must do ?

A special version of printer-driver, maybe ther file-permission ?

I've used it with sucess for WinXP ... never had tried on Win7... must be same.
