Tom,
As you've probably noticed, printing problems don't get a lot of
responses. I'm uncertain as to why.
I don't know what you've already checked, so I'll give a few generalities.
Samba 3.6 had a rewrite of the printing code. If you haven't already,
you can read about it here:
http://www.samba.org/samba/history/samba-3.6.0.html
There is at least 1 known printing bug, and I've experienced it. It is
found here:
https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8384
Would guest access to the printing shares fix your problem?
guest ok = Yes
If these suggestions are all strikeouts, perhaps post the global and
printing sections of your smb.conf.
Someone else may see something there.
