On the printer server, we are running samba 3.0.1, and on the WINS
server we are running an older version, 2.2.5.
Recently, some of our computers were upgraded to XP SP2. After the upgrade, accessing the samba shared printers from the XP machines was incredibly slow. It would take tens of seconds to even bring up the printer status window, and printing from acrobat could take several minutes.
You'll have to upgrade the 3.0.1 box - MS introduced a bug in XP SP2 for printing which samba fixed in the later versions (> 3.0.5 I believe).
Look at the release notes for the latest samba version and search for "SP2" and you'll see the problem.
