Thanks for your comments. This roughly fits information I got from one talk at SambaXP: some printer (read "some drivers") still do not behave properly with Samba and some might even never behave properly. Still, another attempt that can be done woul be using the unofficial backport of samba 3.5 to lenny, which we maintain on http://pkg-samba.alioth.debian.org/packages/lenny-backports-latest/ Printing code changed significantly between 3.4 and 3.5, according to Günther Deschner's talk at SambaXP....so there might be some more improvement again. And, if problems still appear, then it could be time for a good level 10 debug log...:-) Of course, I understand this might be hard to do on a production server. Been there myself too...:-)
