Unable to print correctly html on Windows Printer (SMB) Share

[Brendan Crowley (EEI)]

Hi All,
After connecting a HP DeskJet 950C printer to my NT Server and configuring it as a share printer, I used samba and printconf to connect to it.
I setup the printer in printconf as a Samba (SMB) Printer/Windows Printer (SMB) Share
After restarting the lpd daemon, I can print successfully the ASCII test page and other linux files, e.g. smb.conf, /etc/fstab, etc.
My problem is that I am unable to print correctly html pages from my Netscape browser or emails either.
In the print line of Netscape I put the following;
lpr -P <printer_queue_name>
The [ Printers ] section is as follows;

[printers]
   comment = All Printers
   path = /var/spool/samba
   browseable = no
   guest ok = yes
   writable = no
   printable = yes
   create mode = 0700

I include the testparm log for completeness,
Any ideas?
Regards,
Brendan.
