I have samba 3.0.1 running and have successfully set it up to be a print
spooler, which is working great, until I tried to add more than 5 printers.
I am using cups, using the cups web interface to add printers, today I added
2 more printers. They do not show up in samba, I have restarted cups, smb
nmb, everything except the machine itself. Samba is set to load
/etc/printcap printers, my /etc/printcap is as follows.

# This file was automatically generated by cupsd(8) from the
# /etc/cups/printers.conf file.  All changes to this file
# will be lost.

Any ideas why only the 1st 5 printers show up in samba?
