- Ensure that CUPS is installed and started.
- Ensure that the SAMBA4 client packages are installed (SAMBA 3 will not work). If your distribution does not include a default smb.conf config file (usually in /etc/samba), you will need to follow your distribution's instructions to create a default smb.conf .
Edit the Samba config file (usually /etc/samba/smb.conf) to contain the following two directives in the "[global]" section:
client min protocol = SMB2 client max protocol = SMB3
Ensure the following symlink exists:
Code Block language bash /usr/lib/cups/backend/smb → /usr/bin/smbspool
- For HP printers, we recommend installing the hplip package if available for your distro. Otherwise, your configuration may use generic postscript drivers lacking some of the printer features.
