[Samba] Cups printing works but status is always Access Denied

[Gareth Blades]

I have a RedHat 9 installation running XFS.
Cups 1.1.17-13 is installed

I have compiled and installed Samba 2.2.8a and everything appears to be
working apart from a minor printing problem.
After I have installed a printer on my Win2K workstation I can print via
samba to the cups printer using the windows PCL print driver and it works
fine.
However the printer status is always 'Access denied, unable to connect'.

I get the following entries in the log file for my machine :-

[2003/06/10 12:28:24, 0] printing/print_cups.c:cups_printername_ok(388)
  Unable to get printer status for
