Added printer auto smb?

Hi, if I add a printer, does it automatically get added to the samba server for windows printing via smb?

Hey,

I suggest you read through the documentation’s printing section. It contains the following statement (third paragraph in the “Introduction” section):

All printers set up in CUPS can be directly used by UCS systems and are automatically also provided for Windows computers when Samba is used.

That should answer your question.

Kind regards,
mosu

After reading the printing Section, and your quote I’d like to point out that I’m having the same question/problem. I can see my printers via Linux however Windows doesn’t show any printers as available, or even my print server.

As an update, I added the print server as seen in https://docs.software-univention.de/manual-4.2.html#print::general, however there are no printers listed.

Also tried rebooting the UCS servers. Still no printers listed.
