Sorry for misleading.
I meant the printers not connected to the server but ones on the workstations.

To add new users and machines I use the following shell scripts:
add-user.sh
---
:
/usr/sbin/pw user add -n $1 -g soe
/usr/bin/passwd $1
./smbpasswd -a $1
cp /usr2/samba/templates/logon.cmd /usr2/samba/netlogon/scripts/$1.cmd
---

add-machine.sh
---
:
/usr/sbin/pw user add $1$ -g ntusers -d /dev/null -s /sbin/nologin
./smbpasswd -a -m $1
---

I use:
FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE
Samba 2.8.8 (the same problem on the version 3.0.24)
