[Samba] Cannot print

Gurus,
	I have a Solaris 9 server with Samba 2.2.8a installed since December
02, working perfect. Last Friday I installed the last patch cluster from Sun
to the system (because of the root vulnerability), and this morning when I
came the printers are not working trough samba. The shares and
authentication is working without problem, but the printers not.
	If I try to see the preferences of a printers from a Windows XP
(pro) machine I get:
	"Printers properties cannot be displayed. Operation could not be
completed"

Then, I didn't change anything on the smb.conf file, but here is the
relevant parts:

load printers = yes
printcap name = lpstat
printing = bsd
[printers]
   comment = All Printers
   path = /usr/spool/samba
   browseable = no
   public = yes
   guest ok = yes
   writable = no
   printable = yes
   use client driver = yes

	Checking the logs, the only odd message related to printers that I
found is:

Any ideas? This is urgent for me, so I will appreciate any help.

Thanks.-
