[Samba] Samba printing fails for Windows clients, was working, now fails...

[activity superstore]

Hi all

The printing via Samba+Cups has stopped working. I'm
using Mandrake 10.0 Official as a Samba server for
file sharing and printing on a Windows network.
Printing from a WindowsXP client to the Samba server
now fails and I don't know why it has suddenly
stopped, it used to work. File sharing still works
okay.

There are on no errors logged on the Linux Samba box,
the Windows application you try to print from just
says "not responding". I have used Knoppix as a client
and the printing works from Samba, so it is just a
Windows client to Linux Samba issue, but I can't
figure it out.

Any ideas?

Samba version samba-server-3.0.2a-3mdk
Kernel 2.6.3-4mdk
Mandrake 10.0 official


Here is my smb.conf,
