For my project at work, I decided to create a Ubuntu Linux 16.04 print server but it's in a Windows environment. I installed CUPS via apt and Samba via apt also. The few printers I have setup work fine, they share and everything to either my Linux computer at work or any Windows computer. There's only one caveat. When I try to install a printer on Windows, a prompt comes up saying "No driver found!" and I have to manually install each and every single driver. Is there a way to overcome that?

Yes, preinstall the drivers using GPO. – John Keates Jul 13 '16 at 21:48

@JohnKeates - How would I go about doing that? A link to a step-by-step instruction webpage would be beneficial. – wymillerlinux Jul 14 '16 at 13:02
