Paul, Have you followed the documentation in the CUPS Chapter of the Samba-HOWTO-Collection.pdf that ships with Samba-3?
It's available from: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba-HOWTO-Collection.pdf (Refer to the Documentation Web pages on Samba.org). >From my recollection, you might want to update your CUPS to version 1.1.18 or later. If you have followed the information presented in the HOWTO, then please document precisely how I may reproduce your problem. This will need to document every step while making no assumptions that whoever is following them has any intelligence. We can fix only a problem we can reproduce. Cheers, John T.
