samba - Feb 2003 - Re: Need solution to Printers window access denied, unableto connect message.

look in the smb.conf man page for "disable sspool"
 
I think thats the right option. It needs to go in your global section
 
ie disable sspool = yes
 
Cheers

	To All,
	           I had this same problem and did the use client driver = yes. but
	the thing is now it takes a while to load up the properties of the printer.
	it used to load up right away and now its takes about 5-10 secs. anyone know
	why that is?
	also i see this in the logs
	rpc_client/cli_spoolss_notify.c:spoolss_connect_to_client

	I had the same problem after upgrading to 2.2.7.  You have to add:
	
	use client driver = yes
	
	Either globally or for the individual printer share.
	
	Read the section on the above in the man page for smb.conf for an
	explanation.
