AT&T....here's the pertinent lines from my /etc/smb.conf


[global]
# if you want to automatically load your printer list rather
# than setting them up individually then you'll need this
   printcap name = /etc/printcap
   load printers = yes

# It should not be necessary to spell out the print system
type unless
# yours is non-standard. Currently supported print systems
include:
# bsd, sysv, plp, lprng, aix, hpux, qnx
   printing = bsd

# NOTE: If you have a BSD-style print system there is no need
to 
# specifically define each individual printer
[printers]
   comment = All Printers
   path = /var/spool/samba
   browseable = no
# Set public = yes to allow user 'guest account' to print
   guest ok = no
   writable = no
   printable = yes
