[Samba] Printing only as admin?

I'm having a problem with a Samba PDC box that only lets users who are
defined by "admin users =" to print to any of the printers. As an
interim solution I just threw my @staff group in there, but of course
this lets everyone access everyone elses files :)
Here is one of my printer configs: As you can see, I tried to set every
flag I could think of to let anyone write to this.
[optra]
comment = Tech Area
path = /var/spool/lpd/optra
printer name = optra
writable = yes
browseable = yes
public = yes
printable = yes
guest ok = yes
valid users = @staff
write list = @staff
print command = lpr -P %p %s; rm %s
Is there something I'm missing here? If a user isn't defined as an
admin, they cannot access this printer. I've searched extensively, and
haven't been able to find anything online.
Thanks in advance!
