[Samba] Printing into ether

I'm having an odd problem. The system sees my printer, and from the local
box I can print fine. I set it up in Samba and it shows up there as well.
I can mount it from my WinXP laptop and it doesn't kick back any errors
when I try to print.
The problem is that the print job never actually gets printed. Nothing in
the queue, no errors, just no printing. It's got to be something I have
set wrong in the smb.conf file, but I'll be damned if I can figure out
what it is. Any help would be appreciated, anyone see what I'm doing
wrong:
# smb.conf
