[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#395059: samba: Explorer.exe crash when opening printer properties dialogue

[Christian Perrier]

Quoting Thomas Basler (debian at basler.netsession.info):
> Package: samba
> Version: 3.0.23c-2
> Severity: important
> 
> When I use Samba to share my printer (Konica-Minolta 2300DL) and open the printer properties window (on Windows XP and
> Windows 2003) I get very crazy values in the settings, e.g. scaling factor 34833 or Tab-Pages without text and so on.
> I am using cups for printing. If I add the printer with the same driver but without samba (with cups specified as
> http://<servername>/printername/) everything works very well. I get the right values.


What happens when you use the very same driver on a Windows print
server?

Have you tried to stop samba, clean out the contents of /var/run/samba
and subdirectories?

Anyway, I'm not convinced that this deserves to have an important
severity, given the quite restricted field of relevance for that bug.
