[cups.general] Re: Cups Windows drivers - all options ignored

[Steffen Kolbe]

Hi,

do you have contacted anyone of the developers about this error?

regards
Steffen

>Well, I have the same problem. I have a postscript printer (OKI C5400) configured in CUPS with the original PPD. And I've used cupsaddsmb to setup the CUPS Windows Driver in a samba server. Printing from a Linux client work fine. But when I'm printing throught samba all options are ignored (e.g. duplex).
