If I can't get the driver to 'look' right, the clients are still going
thru a samba spool so I can do page accounting and restrict who prints
color. With the "use client driver = yes" option, I can install the
driver locally. The problem is I have to install the driver
locally... I'd rather not do the walk! :)

It doesn't contain UNIDRV.DLL
It looks like it uses the generic windows PS driver PSCRIPT5.DLL with
a bunch of extras - for the UI?
The only difference between rpcclient -c 'enumdrivers 3' on samba vs
win2k is that the win2k driver has a Monitorname: [RICOH Language
Monitor2] entry.
