Washington, I intend to get the drivers, but they should be hosted on the linux so that once you navigate to the printer share from your windows, you can double click on it and it can get the windows driver and install it.
Easy then! Just get the drivers, extract them to /usr/local/drivers/printers/printername/, then export /usr/local/drivers via samba, in read-only mode. Make sure your Linux box is in the same WORKGROUP/AD DOMAIN as your wrkstations. You will need to create those directories referenced.
When installing a printer and prompted for drivers, just browse to $LINUX/drivers/printers/printername and choose the right file/folder.
Si ni hivyo?
