Well, perhaps it is a bug:

https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101
From: Jianliang Lu <j.lu at tiesse.com>
To: samba-technical at lists.samba.org
X-OriginatingIP: 151.24.153.138 (lu)
Subject: Browsing problem for printers on Samba3.0 a24.
Reply-To: j.lu at tiesse.com


When a user would add a printer, that was shared on Samba, on his NT
machine,
he cannot find the printers from the shared list. The problem is that the
browsing flag of Samba does not include the SV_TYPE_PRINTQ_SERVER
(0x00000200), so a rap API_NetServerEnum2 (104) was failed to get printer
servers.
I think that we should put the "default_server_announce |=
SV_TYPE_PRINTQ_SERVER;" on the routine "set_default_server_announce_type",
because the "update_server_announce_as_printserver" was called only by the
smbd, not nmbd, that was responsible for the browsing announcement.
