What I've found with point and print is that some drivers don't like to play
with it on Samba. I tried installing a Brother (don't remember exact model)
on point and print and got a similar protection fault. A while later I was
able to get a Xerox N17 working so easy I had to check twice that it was
really working.
I came to a conclusion that it had something to do with the way the
individual printer drivers interact with Samba.
Nothing I ever did got the Brother to work with point and print on Samba.

| I have been trying to setup point and print on a debian testing box. I

| add printer wizard, the drivers appeared to install fine. Afterwards I
| right clicked on the printer and clicked connect, per the SAMBA howto,
| this also appeared to work. When I tried to enter the properties screen
| of the local printer or on the share I get the following error message:
| "Function address 0x60630d26 caused a protection fault. (exception code
| 0xc0000005)
| Some or all property page(s) may not be displayed)."
| After the error message comes up, the properties window does not open. I
| cannot print either.
