Adding Printer via "Run" vs "Printers and Faxes"
2 answers - 594 bytes -

Hi
I am having a problem where if I try to add a printer by simply typing
\\server\printer in the Run dialog, I get a rather verbose error message
ending in "Incorrect Function". If I add the printer with "Add Printer"
in "Printers and Faxes" everything works fine.
(It looks like the same problem mentioned here:
)
I am running samba 3.0.23c.
I can provide full "log level = 10" logs of both methods of adding the
printer, my smb.conf and any other information that you might need.
PS: Please keep me on the CC as I am not subscribed to this list.

It could be a bug, I'm changing the Subject and our beloved
Samba Developers can see it, but it was working in any early
version of Samba (before 3.0.23)?
Kind regards,

I haven't tried it in earlier versions.
