Package: samba
Version: 2:3.6.6-6
Followup-For: Bug #695472

Hi,

After upgrading from Squeezy to Wheezy printing from 32b WinXP and 64b Win7
Pro inexplicably stopped working, the Windows queue list simply saying
"Error" and not giving any further details. With the default logging levels
nothing to explain the problem was being logged by Samba or Cups. I have no
idea what the problem was, but adding "use client driver = yes" to smb.conf
seems to have fixed it, which I was only able to find thanks to this bug. I
am using the Windows drivers for the printer.

Thanks,

Roger

PS Having just finished browsing to the end of the bug list, this would
appear to be the same as bug 709613. I will attempt to merge them.
