3.2. Configuration
After installing samba edit /etc/samba/smb.conf. Change the workgroup attribute to what is appropriate for your network, and change security to user:
workgroup = EXAMPLE
...
security = user
In the [printers] section change the guest ok option to yes:
browsable = yes guest ok = yes
After editing smb.conf restart Samba:
sudo systemctl restart smbd.service nmbd.service
The default Samba configuration will automatically share any printers installed. Simply install the printer locally on your Windows clients.
