By default, samba has a list of magic words it looks for when trying to
determine if the printer is ready to run:
static const char *stat2_strings[] = { "jam", "paper", "error", "responding", "n
ot accepting", "not running", "turned off", NULL };
If any of those words show up in your lpq output, windows will report
the printer not being ready. They're all defined in
source/printing/lpq_parse.c You may be facing something like this...
