[Bug 967410] Re: Windows clients cannot connect to shared printers

[MarkosJal]

We all know there are workarounds for this and what surprises me more s
that after 8 months NO FIX! I just took my install of ubuntu 12.04 to
the latest samba packages from Raring and the problem is still there . I
was already running CUPS 1.61. What I did notice is something I did not
see before when I ran

cupsaddsmb -H localhost -U root -h localhost -a -v

It returned an error about an invalid printer .

So  then I run
rpcclient -U root localhost -c enumdrivers
and 
rpcclient -U root localhost -c enumprinters

And only one driver and two printers (one is PDF) . The PDF printer nor
driver are anywhere t be fund but the driver for the PDF printer was
made available to windows! What gets even weirder is that I cn print to
the PDF printer via Samba and a postscript driver! Considering that
samba does not even see it as installed thats odd


Is this a samba bug or  cups bug?
