I run a printer server with about 100 users, with the following
settings.

[printers]
        browsable= no
        path=/home/%u
        writable= no
        public=no
        printable=yes
        create mode = 0700

Printing with NT4 doesn't work if you don't use samba with
password encryption enabled (also if you have the clear password
registry hack installed). NT4 contacts the printer in a other way
than Win95 and Win3.11 ;-( .
