[Samba] General Samba Printer Admin question

How do you handle general samba print job administration?
Anyone have print command scripts to share?
We would like our printer admins to be able to "pause" and
"resume" printing. Now we get "Error processing command"
when "Pause Printing" is attempted from an NT workstation.
I presume this is because the admin lacks authority to
execute the lppause/lpresume commands. Ours are:
lp -d %p -%j -H hold
lp -d %p -%j -H resume
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
Helen
