I ended up solving the riddle myself by taking out sections of my smb.conf until I found the bug that was causing me grief. A few months back I was looking into how to optimize my settings to boost the speed for DOS clients. I set "max xmit = 4096" to improve my speed. Everything worked fine until I had a power outage and I upgraded my samba at the same time to a newer version. That's when the wierd printing behavior started. I looked into the "max xmit" setting and I changed it to 16644 which is supposed to be the default size for Windows 2000, and my printing problem was solved. I don't know why everything else still worked such as sharing files and acting as a PDC, just printing was affected.

I've having a heck of time getting all of my Windows 2000/XP clients to print. Some can print fine. Others get an error that it can't write to the printer. I'm getting this message in log for someone that's having trouble:

unmarshall_rpc_header: FIRST endianness flag (0) different in next PDU !

Can you send me a full level 50 debug log surrounding this error.
