6 <para>With the introduction of MS-RPC based printer
7 support for Windows NT/2000 clients in Samba 2.2, it is now
8 possible to delete printer at run time by issuing the
9 DeletePrinter() RPC call.</para>
11 <para>For a Samba host this means that the printer must be
12 physically deleted from underlying printing system. The <parameter moreinfo="none">
13 deleteprinter command</parameter> defines a script to be run which
14 will perform the necessary operations for removing the printer
15 from the print system and from <filename moreinfo="none">smb.conf</filename>.
18 <para>The <parameter moreinfo="none">deleteprinter command</parameter> is
19 automatically called with only one parameter: <parameter moreinfo="none">
20 "printer name"</parameter>.</para>
22 <para>Once the <parameter moreinfo="none">deleteprinter command</parameter> has
23 been executed, <command moreinfo="none">smbd</command> will reparse the <filename moreinfo="none">
24 smb.conf</filename> to associated printer no longer exists.
25 If the sharename is still valid, then <command moreinfo="none">smbd
26 </command> will return an ACCESS_DENIED error to the client.</para>
