Try adding -r to the print command this deletes jobs from the samba queue after it is done spooling. No need to manually delete the files every night.

I find that the /var partition is full and on investigation /var/spool/samba is full of smbprn.blah.blah files. when i dlete the files printing is again fine and i have loads of space on the var partition (1-2gig normally). On some servers i have put a line in crontab to remove these files at 11pm every night which seems to work ok but I am not sure it is not just a bodge to get round a problem. Any ideas would be greatly received. I have trawled google and mailing lists and it looks like i have created a new problem!
