cups windows driver v6 and printer properties

[W. Engelhart]

Unfortunately, the problem persists.

I've double-checked the configuration on the Windows side. The driver has been copied and registered completely. Unfortunately, Windows does not give any hint how to analyse that problem.

Could anybody give me a hint on how to analyse this? It must be a small, weird problem. But without any clue what goes wrong this is impossible to solve.

Thanks & best, Wol.
