I have an HP, 2100M printer.  The driver that I have loaded in Windows is "HP 
Laserjet 2100 Series PS"  Unfortunately, I don't have any more information 
about the driver becasue I can't print the test page.  Here are the pertinent 
setting from smb.conf:

[global]
	netbios name = PELORUS
	server string = samba server
	interfaces = 192.168.0.1
	bind interfaces only = yes
	encrypt passwords = yes
	log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
	max log size = 0
	socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
	dns proxy = No
	hosts allow = 192.168.0. 127.
	printing = cups
	load printers = yes
	security = SHARE
	printcap name = cups
	guest ok = yes

[printers]
	comment = All Printers
	path = /var/spool/samba
	browseable = no
	public = yes
	guest ok = yes
	writable = no
	printable = yes
	printer admin = skip, suzanne, sfm, root, @ntadmin, smorrow

I do not remember what version of Samba I had before.  I installed it so long 
ago, and it worked fine for so long, I really didn't think about it too much.

I am using CUPS version 1.1.20

I sure hope this helps.
