<h2 class="title"><a name="DESCRIPTION">Description</a></h2>
The <b>cupsaddsmb</b> program exports printers to the SAMBA software (version 2.2.0 or higher) for use with Windows clients.
Depending on the SAMBA configuration, you may need to provide a password to export the printers.
This program requires the Windows printer driver files described below.
<h3><a name="SAMBA_CONFIGURATION">Samba Configuration</a></h3>
<b>cupsaddsmb</b> uses the RPC-based printing support in SAMBA to provide printer drivers and PPD files to Windows client machines.
In order to use this functionality, you must first configure the SAMBA
<b>smb.conf</b>(5)
file to support printing through CUPS and provide a printer driver download
share, as follows:
<pre class="man">
[global]
load printers = yes
printing = cups
printcap name = cups
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = no
public = yes
guest ok = yes
writable = no
printable = yes
[print$]
comment = Printer Drivers
path = /etc/samba/drivers
browseable = yes
guest ok = no
read only = yes
write list = root
</pre>
This configuration assumes a FHS-compliant installation of SAMBA; adjust the [printers] and [print$] share paths accordingly on your system as needed.
<h3><a name="MICROSOFT_POSTSCRIPT_DRIVERS_FOR_WINDOWS">Microsoft Postscript Drivers For Windows</a></h3>
The base driver for Windows 2000 and higher is the Microsoft PostScript driver, which is available on any system running Windows 2000 or higher in the %WINDIR%\SYSTEM32\SPOOL\DRIVERS\W32X86\3 folder for 32-bit drivers and %WINDIR%\SYSTEM32\SPOOL\DRIVERS\X64\3 folder for 64-bit drivers.
<p>Copy the 32-bit drivers to the <i>/usr/share/cups/drivers</i> directory and the 64-bit drivers to the <i>/usr/share/cups/drivers/x64</i> directory exactly as named below:
<pre class="man">
ps5ui.dll
pscript.hlp
pscript.ntf
pscript5.dll
</pre>
<b>Note:</b> Unlike Windows, case is significant - make sure that you use the lowercase filenames shown above, otherwise <b>cupsaddsmb</b> will fail to export the drivers.
<h2 class="title"><a name="OPTIONS">Options</a></h2>
<b>cupsaddsmb</b> supports the following options:
<dl class="man">
<dt><b>-H </b><i>samba-server</i>
<dd style="margin-left: 5.0em">Specifies the SAMBA server which defaults to the CUPS server.
<dt><b>-U </b><i>samba-user</i>[<b>%</b><i>samba-password</i>]
<dd style="margin-left: 5.0em">Specifies the SAMBA print admin username which defaults to your current username.
If the username contains a percent (%) character, then the text following the percent is treated as the SAMBA password to use.
<dt><b>-a</b>
<dd style="margin-left: 5.0em">Exports all known printers.
Otherwise only the named printers are exported.
<dt><b>-h </b><i>cups-server</i>[<b>:</b><i>port</i>]
<dd style="margin-left: 5.0em">Specifies a different CUPS server to use.
<dt><b>-v</b>
<dd style="margin-left: 5.0em">Specifies that verbose information should be shown.
This is useful for debugging SAMBA configuration problems.
