+<description>
+ <para>With the introduction of MS-RPC based printing support
+ for Windows NT/2000 client in Samba 2.2, a &quot;Printers...&quot; folder will
+ appear on Samba hosts in the share listing. Normally this folder will
+ contain an icon for the MS Add Printer Wizard (APW). However, it is
+ possible to disable this feature regardless of the level of privilege
+ of the connected user.</para>
+
+ <para>Under normal circumstances, the Windows NT/2000 client will
+ open a handle on the printer server with OpenPrinterEx() asking for
+ Administrator privileges. If the user does not have administrative
+ access on the print server (i.e is not root or a member of the
+ <parameter moreinfo="none">printer admin</parameter> group), the OpenPrinterEx()
+ call fails and the client makes another open call with a request for
+ a lower privilege level. This should succeed, however the APW
+ icon will not be displayed.</para>
+
+ <para>Disabling the <parameter moreinfo="none">show add printer wizard</parameter>
+ parameter will always cause the OpenPrinterEx() on the server
+ to fail. Thus the APW icon will never be displayed.
+</para>
+<note><para>This does not prevent the same user from having
+ administrative privilege on an individual printer.</para></note>
