Printer drivers push problem with samba

Although it wouldn’t be a Windows like auto install, a work around is just to create a shared folder with the drivers in it for your clients to download that way when they double click on your printer and it prompts them for the driver they will be able to browse to it.
It’s not as straight forward as Windows, but it’s not too difficult for the majority of typical users… especially if you create them a quick cheat sheet of instructions for the couple of extra steps.
