[Samba] printing problem from Windows 98 - samba 3.0.1

[rajesh ghanekar]

Hi List,
  
  (PS: I am not signed to list, please CC a mail to
rajesh_ghanekar at yahoo.com ).

   I am using samba 3.0.1 as a primary domain
controller with LDAP. I am able to do file sharing
very well with user wise restriction. The problem is
with printer.
   I have a HP1200 printer for which i have to do JOB
accounting. All the jobs will be queued through samba.
I have done setup so that the machine (named
"printserver") to which printer is attached doesn't
allow other machines to directly print, it allows only
samba (named "pragatee") machine to print. So all the
workstations will queue their print jobs to samba.
   Now when a workstation joins samba domain, they can
share files. I have added print$ share so workstation
can download adobeps4.drv and related files directly.
But when i configure printer on Win98 workstation and
go to the properties applet of that printer, i get
rundll32 error related to adobeps4.drv. The same thing
works perfectly with Win2k/WinXp clients with
cupsdrvr.dll and stuff.
   Has anyone faced this kind of problem before? This
problem has been listed in threads, but no replies
were given. If anyone wants to see complete error log,
i will mail that. Sorry for such a huge mail. I am
scratching my head for last 2 days. :-(

  Error log is as following :
