I had a problem with the printer connected to my LM system and printing from
my Win client. I had configured the Lm printer thro' samba as 'dj400'. Had
to modify my printers.conf in /etc/cups dir

From

<Default Printer lp>
to
<Default Printer dj400>
restart CUPS

and everything went fine.

I think CUPS requires sama printer and the default printer names to be the
same.

Hope this helps

Cheers
Sridhar
