The only time it is necessary to specify the printer configuration in detail
is where you want to restrict certain printers from use.
Just to share something I do with the greater community:
My samba machine receives it's CUPS printers from the printers that our main CUPS servers broadcast, so when the machine first boots it takes a couple minutes for the list of printers to fully populate. This obviously causes samba to not advertise all the printers after a reboot until you restart the service after the list is fully populated a couple minutes after boot. I resolved this by putting each printer explicitly in the smb.conf file. Granted, having a 900 line smb.conf file is kind of obnoxious, but the silver lining is has actually made my life easier since I can make changes/restrictions to specific queues now.
