Samba print$ share for windows "point and print"?!

Howdy,
I used to have a print$ share set up, as described [in a post by Rich White|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5572602#5572602]
It worked wonderfully well, and all my windows users could get drivers directly off of the server. It was almost mac-like
I unwittingly bumped into the invisible shares (as far as the GUI admin tools are concerned) for netlogon and profiles, and that was annoying. But for the life of me, I can't seem to make a print$ share that actually shows up. It was painlessly easy - insanely easy in Tiger. Alls I had to do was create the shared folder named "print$" in the Workgroup Manager.
This doesn't work in Leopard. It looks like it works, but the share never shows up in /var/run/samba/shares. I tried writing one into /etc/smb.conf suspiciously similar to Rich White, and the best I got was nothing, and the worst were smb core dumps...
Does anyone know what gives in Leopard? I had hoped I could roll this out rather soonish.
Thanks,
Jeremy

Do you mean the PDF Printer? You can't just download it... It's a part of the Acrobat installation. You get access to it when you purchase and install Acrobat on your computer. It's not a part of the free Reader.

For printer LaserJet Professional CM1410 any chance to set printing password for windows and MAC

Dear All
for printer LaserJet Professional CM1410 any chance to set printing password for windows and MAC?please help?

What Windows OS are you using? Are you networked?
If you are networked, you have to setup your file and print sharing options in order to require password assess. If you are just trying to control specific files from being printed, you can do that, too.
If you are just trying to control the amount of printing off of a single PC with a printer, you could setup different accounts for each user and limit their access.
Some of the commercial printers can have password options, but I do not find any password options for the CM 1410, other than what I provided earlier.
If I have been helpful, a Kudo is always appreciated.

I just want HP Smart Print for Windows 7 and IE9. Must I also get BING Bar?

I want to download HP Smart Printing for Windows 7 and IE 9. According to the HP website, I can get this download only by also getting the BING toolbard, which I do NOT want.
How can I just get HP Smart Print?
Thanks.

The terse version of the answer would have been "You can't.". The detailed answer is something like the following: HP Smart Web Printing was an add-in supported on versions of IE6-IE8 and at one time on Firefox 3.5. Some time ago this application was retired and replaced with HP Smart Printing. Smart Web Printing (currently) requires IE6 - IE9 and it also requires the Bing bar. There are third party applications that may meet your requirements, but for HP Smart Printing you will need to install the Bing bar. A Google search may turn up some alternatives.

How can I get the Microsoft enhanced Point and Print compatibility driver installed on Win7 LC master?

We recently migrated from a Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server 2012 print server. When recomposing a linked clone pool with the old 2003 server, drivers were taken care of for the printer when the user printed for the first time after desktop recompose. With 2012, any printer using the Point and Print driver doesn't seem to obtain the driver again from the 2012 server. All of our clients are running Windows 7 which means the Microsoft enhanced Point and Print compatibility driver is not installed in the OS natively.
I apparently need to figure out a way to get this installed on the host image so it trickles down to snapshots when recomposing the linked clone pool but I haven't been able to dig much information on doing this. Does anyone out there have any insight on how to accomplish this? If I recompose a pool now for a user who is using a new Point and Print driver, they get the following message that is resolved by removing the printer from their account and re-adding it:
"The 'Microsoft enhanced Point and Print compatibility driver' printer driver is not installed on this computer. Some printer properties will not be accessible unless you install the printer driver. Do you want to install the driver now?"
I figured the easy solution would be to just install a printer using the Point and Print driver and then remove it...leaving the driver behind (unless it cleaned up after itself). The problem with this is in my testing, even after removing and re-adding a printer that set off installation of this Point and Print driver on the client, any other printer that was using it still required the remove/re-add process in order to work, else I got the same message. That tells me that the driver may be custom for each printer installed?
Color me a little confused. I do NOT like the way that Server 2012 handles printers. I've come across a few other issues as well (such as duplex capabilities not being remember on the print server for a printer) that I never had with the 2003 server.
Thanks!!

I was able to get it to work using your instructions off of here and your other thread
Thank you!

Options gone for select,edit, and print under HP Smart Web banner since HP dialed in to fix crash

The buttons are gone for selecting, editing, and printing under my HP Smart Web since HP dialed in and fixed another problem. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the software but still no luck. All that shows up is the "HP Smart Web Printing" banner with the X to exit; that's it, no options listed below. My computer has completely crashed twice since I started using it 1/4/10. The second time the person dialed in and changed the bios and a few things in msconfig but I don't see anything there that would cause the smart web printing. HELP. Am I missing something really silly since I am a new user of HP Smart Print?
Thank you in advance if you can help!

I am REALLY annoyed to read this post. I have spent a lot of time to try and fix my computer (which I don't have with 5 kids...not your problem I know and NOT the point). It should NOT be this hard to update and fix a product. I DON'T WANT the Bing bar...and am feeling like I am being forced to accept it to make my puter run correctly because it is supported by HP. What....kind of service is THAT???????? I hope that someone from HP....admin or whatever...reads this. I am "madder" than mad. I have had HP products for years with few problems...and all of which I could find a solution for. This is unacceptable...and I hope someone listens. I don't know if I can trust HP again....when it won't even use the browser most use without problems. Sorry to the rest of the "forum" for venting...but I can't get help...am frustrated...find this out now...and it is nothing personal.

Adobe ps printer driver for windows vista. Where can I get it?

I need Adobe ps printer driver for windows vista. Where can i get it? Plz help me. If yes, then where and if no, why?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks.

The Acrobat printer produces a PS file that is then sent to the Distiller process to create a PDF. The other PPD you mention is something I know nothing about. However, why would you want to use a different driver? The Adobe PDF driver is optimized for use in creating PDF files and other routes may not produce as good of a result. If the other PPD produces a PDF, then why are you asking about the Adobe driver?

In Address Book, I would like to have a field "File As". So, l can list "Joe Smith", as "The Smith Family". I will use this when I print labels for Xmas cards and such. Thanks!

When I bought my Mac they gave me a free hp printer. My mac is a 10.7 and the printer is for 10.6 and below.... so why did they give me this printer? Can I use it somehow or should I ask for a different one that is compatible with my computer?

Can I use it somehow or should I ask for a different one that is compatible with my computer?
No, that's not necessary.
You Mac most likely sat in inventory before it was sold so the latest drivers were not installed.
If you tried using the printer and couldn'tget it to work, go here > http://www8.hp.com/us/en/support-drivers.html
If this is a USB connected printer, make sure it's connected to your Mac, then at that link click: Detect Your Product

Firefox crashes on Windows 7 when printing to a Windows 7 network printer.

On Windows 7 running Firefox 3.6.10, I cannot print to a Windows 7 network printer. Firefox crashes every time as soon as I hit print.
However, the situation is very specific. I can print from Windows XP using Firefox 3.6.10 to a Windows 7 network printer. I can also print from Windows 7 using Firefox 3.6.10 to a Windows XP network printer. The only situation that doesn't work is using Firefox and printing from Windows 7 machine to Windows 7 machine.
Firefox is also the only program that does not print. I can print using Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, MS Word, MS Excel, and every other application just fine. Firefox is exclusive in that it is the only program that crashes and refuses to print. The drivers that are being used a PostScript drivers.
I have tried multiple versions of Firefox from older ones to the Firefox 4 beta and the program crashes every time.
Again, the only time it crashes is printing from a Windows 7 client computer to a Windows 7 network printer. Printing from XP to Windows 7 and from Windows 7 to XP works.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. The only program I've noticed the problem with is Firefox, so I'm assuming it's a problem at the application level.

Here is the Crash Report for a user more experienced at reading Crash Reports than I am: <br />
http://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/45f47e99-ea8e-449f-aa1e-6399e2101014
Here's a search for that particular Signature - [http://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/list?product=Firefox&query_search=signature&query_type=exact&query=OPBinaryCookedPortWrite&date=10%2F14%2F2010%2014%3A00%3A00&range_value=1&range_unit=weeks&hang_type=any&process_type=any&plugin_field=&plugin_query_type=&plugin_query=&do_query=1&admin=&signature=OPBinaryCookedPortWrite OPBinaryCookedPortWrite] <br />
Looks like a Windows problem, but not restricted to Win7 or 3.6.10 - there's one on Vista SP2 with Firefox 3.6 and another with 4.0b6 on Win7.

Hey,
I see you are wanting to install an HP Laserjet 1200 on your Windows 7 64bit PC. I also see that the downloadable drivers are not working for you. Have you tried installing the driver located in the Windows Add a Printer: Windows Update section? For information on how to perform this type of install please read the article linked below.
