Thanks for the tip, however I just logged in as one of the users on our
Samba server and typed the command:  lpr -r -Pmaxl5 /etc/resolv.conf

The file printed fine and I didn't see an entry in /usr/local/samba/print 
so it must be something else related to when the users print from
Win95/Win98?

Thanks,

Melissa
