Yes.

This identical config worked without this problem under Samba 2.2.1a. If
it was authenitcation how would they be able to print at all? It does
work, but only for awhile.

Every printer queue stanza looks like this:
[traps]
comment = Traverse City Optra Laser Printer
path = /tmp
create mask = 0700
guest ok = Yes
printable = Yes
