[Samba] Error when trying to print with point and print installed drivers

I have an Ubuntu Sever 9.10 setup running Samba as a PDC for a bunch of
Windows clients.
Everything is functioning perfectly except for the point and print delivery
of printer drivers.
I have tested this with Ubuntu 9.10's Samba (3.4.0) and two of the Debian
Samba packages (3.4.3 and 3.4.5). All seem to demonstrate the same problem.
*What works:*
Adding a printer and manually installing the drivers to the client works
perfectly.
Installing drivers and associating them to printers shared by Samba works
fine via the Windows GUI and the rpcclient tool. Adding the printer to a
Windows client also appears to work, i.e. the driver downloads, installs and
the printer is visible.
*What doesn't:*
Unfortunately when trying to print using the point and print configured
printer a generic 'failed to print' message is returned by Windows.
In the Samba logs there is the following error (this occurs when opening
preferences and trying to print):

Finally here is the relevant shares in smb.conf:
(I have tried 'use client driver' yes/no and experienced the same result)
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = no
printable = yes
guest ok = no
read only = yes
create mask = 0700
# use client driver = yes
[print$]
comment = Printer Drivers
path = /var/lib/samba/printers
browseable = yes
read only = yes
guest ok = no
write list = root, @"Domain Admins"
force create mode = 0664
force directory mode = 0664
Permissions are setup fine for /var/lib/samba/printers.
I have granted Domain admins the SePrintOperatorPrivilege.

Any help/advice would be appreciated, but the issue is more of an annoyance
than a major issue.
