<description>
<para>With the introduction of MS-RPC based printing support
for Windows NT/2000 client in Samba 2.2, a "Printers..." 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>
