[Samba] CUPS and Samba 3.0 - printers no show

[linux power]

Try this in smb.conf in global section.
printcap = lpstat
 
And in [printer]
print command = lpr /dev/usb/lp0 %s, rm %s -r
The cue is to replace %P%p with the URI for the printer found in Cups.
In this example you see my usb printer.
Check a smb.conf file for the syntax in the statement

Hi [Samba]s

I have RedHat 8.0, and have installed a compiled CUPS 1.1.19pre4 and
Samba 3.0 (latest this week from CVS). It all compiles and installs OK
with CUPS support in Samba, but no printers show up (according to
smbclient -L or from windoze) when "printing=cups" is used. It is OK if
another form of printing is used, for example "printing=sysv". A
reversion to Samba 2.2.8a however works perfectly with the identical
setup, including configure options. Installation and use of printers
goes through OK. I assume others have had success with Samba 3 and CUPS
as I haven't seen any problem posts so far. My ntadmins group include
administrator accounts for windoze and also root, all of whom have
entries in smbpasswd.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Many Thanks, Ken
