Sorry, Lars,
I didn't notice your attachment the first time I read your post. So
I didn't consider it in my answer.
So here is my second take....

The printcap entry details are of no interest for Samba. It only wants to see
the printer name in there.

Are you sure that there are not *more* files? Try running "enumdrivers 3"
to also see the "Dependentfiles" listed.
An alternative method to learn to know all the Dependent files is to
print a "Test Page" from a Windows client. If your Samba rpcclient
installation did not work yet, you need to install it the non-SPOOLSS
("use client driver") way first. An "enumdriver 3" would show possibly
s.th. like that:
"enumdriver 3"
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Printer Driver Info 3:
Version: [3]
Driver Name: [HP4600]
Architecture: [Windows NT x86]
Driver Path: [\\localhost\print$\W32X86\3\HPBF422G.DLL]
Datafile: [\\localhost\print$\W32X86\3\HPBF422I.PMD]
Configfile: [\\localhost\print$\W32X86\3\HPBF422E.DLL]
Helpfile: [\\localhost\print$\W32X86\3\something.HLP]
Dependentfiles: [\\localhost\print$\W32X86\3\firstname.DLL]
Dependentfiles: [\\localhost\print$\W32X86\3\secondname.INI]
Dependentfiles: [\\localhost\print$\W32X86\3\thirdname.DLL]
Dependentfiles: [\\localhost\print$\W32X86\3\fourthname.dat]
[....]
Dependentfiles: [\\localhost\print$\W32X86\3\lastname.cat]
(Dependentfiles may or may not be there. Their names vary largely)
Can you check for this and report back?

OK -- this is a more modern driver, version 3, going into the "3"
subdirectory (reserved for drivers which don't run in Kernal mode).
I have not much experience with those. I believe the "3" subdir is
only there on W2k/XP, but not on WinNT. [Could someome please shout
very loudly "NOT TRUE!" if he notices otherwise on an NT system??]
This listing seems to suggest that the "HP4600CLJ" driver is indeed
registered with Samba. From this I would derive that your adddriver
command had been this:
rpcclient -Uroot%xxxx -c `adddriver "Windows NT x86" "HP4600CLJ:HPBF422G.DLL:HP4600CLJ.PND:HPBF422E.DLL:[HERE_SHOULD_BE_NAME_OF_HELP_FILE]:NULL:RAW:NULL" localhost'
But if your driver/print-combo with the name HP4600 is working, but
the one with the name HP4600CLJ is *not* (with really identical
installations!), then I am stumped too. My only wild speculation
then is this: could it be that the driver name is too long (with 9
characters)???
Try these steps then:
* [ Collect all the files -- HPBF422G.DLL; HP4600CLJ.PND;
HPBF422E.DLL: [HERE_SHOULD_BE_NAME_OF_HELP_FILE];
firstname.DLL thru lastname.cat; in one directory
* cd into that directory.
* smbclient //localhost/print\$ -U'root%xxx -c 'cd W32X86; put HPBF422G.DLL; put HP4600CLJ.PND; put HPBF422E.DLL put [HERE_SHOULD_BE_NAME_OF_HELP_FILE]'
* rpcclient -Uroot%xxxx -c `adddriver "Windows NT x86" "HP4600CL:HPBF422G.DLL:HP4600CLJ.PND:HPBF422E.DLL:[HERE_SHOULD_BE_NAME_OF_HELP_FILE]:NULL:RAW:NULL" localhost'
MOTE. that this uses an 8-character long driver name "HP4600CL".
If this fails, check for typos, but repeat the smbclient
command before...)
* rpcclient -Uroot%xxxx -c `setdriver HP4600CL HP4600CLJ' localhost
NOTE that this uses the 8-char drivername, but the 9 char
printer name. If this fails, create another printer with 8 chars
too and and try again.
-----------------
One last wild speculation is: Your printing *.tdb files might have
become corrupted. Try to delete them (and loose all your printing
setup!) and start again. (Or make a backup of the *.tdb files first,
for easier re-build in case that was not the culprit)
----------------
BTW, I forgot which version of Samba you are running....

What were the credentials use for this rpcclient command?
Is there any hint above that that the context was switched?

You can increase or decrease the smbd log level "on the fly" as root
with
smbcontrol smbd debug 5
Check current value with
smbcontrol smbd debuglevel
It then all goes into the log files. You can disble the
timestamps with
debug timestamp = no
in smb.conf which makes for better readability of the log files.
