Here's the global and printers sections from my smb.conf: [global] netbios name = MARS workgroup = GALAXY encrypt passwords = Yes log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 50 socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 printcap name = lpstat dns proxy = No printing = cups utmp = true status = yes security = user domain logons = yes os level = 65 domain admin group = @adm nt acl support = no [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba create mask = 0700 guest ok = Yes printable = Yes print command = lpr-cups -P %p -o raw %s -r # using client side printer drivers. lpq command = lpstat -o %p lprm command = cancel %p-%j browseable = No I am using CUPS which seems to greatly simplify printer management. Note that the share for the printer should not have any drivers installed on the server side - select "generic" printer. You should install the drivers under Windows, which will format the output and send it to Samba, which will pass it to the printer.
