Adding print driver to CUPS/Samba from Windows - printer doesn't display
Hi all,
Probably an easy question, but when I add a printer through the CUPS UI (http://server:631), everything goes smooth. My next step is to connect to \\server from my windows workstation, type in credentials (auth is successful) and it bring up the shares, but the printer I just added does not show up! I have noticed that if I wait several minutes it will show up, but if I want it to show up immediately, I have to restart samba. Is this the only way to get it to show up immediately? Why if I wait does it seemingly always show up? Any help appreciated. Thanks! |
Set up wins support=yes. That will speed things up.

thanks for the reply...actually, it turned out to be stidly simple
cupsd.conf browsing Off to browsing On this made it so that when I added a printer queue in the CUPS UI, it displayed immediately in NN. |
