samba printing help pls :)

[thing]

Hi tried using your smb.conf with minimal mods to suit my domain

no go

same as,

funny if i stop samba then i cant connect and view properties of the
printer, when i restart i get an immediate refresh and i can then
connect and view properties.

so something is semi-talking, command line works so where next?

regards

Thing
