OK, Now I manage to make it print. The only change I made was to disable spoolss. So I added to the smb.conf the following line:
disable spoolss = yes I'm not too sure if this is the best option, but the errors went away, and the printers are working again. Nevertheless, I would like to know why using spoolss the printers were not working. Cheers!
