+* 7: How do I set the printer driver name correctly?
+
+Question:
+> On NT, I opened "Printer Manager" and "Connect to Printer". 
+> Enter "\\ptdi270\ps1" in the box of printer. I got the
+> following error message:
+> 
+>     You do not have sufficient access to your machine
+>     to connect to the selected printer, since a driver
+>     needs to be installed locally.
+
+Answer:
+
+In the more recent versions of Samba you can now set the "printer
+driver" in smb.conf. This tells the client what driver to use. For
+example, I have:
+
+     printer driver = HP LaserJet 4L
+
+and NT knows to use the right driver. You have to get this string
+exactly right.
+
+To find the exact string to use, you need to get to the dialog box in
+your client where you select which printer driver to install. The
+correct strings for all the different printers are shown in a listbox
+in that dialog box.
+
+You could also try setting the driver to NULL like this:
+
+     printer driver = NULL
+
+this is effectively what older versions of Samba did, so if that
+worked for you then give it a go. If this does work then let me know
+and I'll make it the default. Currently the default is a 0 length
+string.
