clearly not the issue...

It would seem that something changed perhaps it was the way Samba was
compiled by Red Hat packagers but I don't think so.

By default, cups 'retains' successful print jobs (at least on RH AS 3),
and these jobs remain in the spool for the printer - and can be deleted
by the user if they are sufficiently privileged to alter the queue.
