[Samba] Please help printing from CUPS to XP shared printer via smb

Sorry if this is a stupid question but I tried reading, studying and 
finding solution but am not making it alone :)

On my home lan I have a Linux (Debian sid) box (192.168.174.244) running 
  3.0.10 samba and  cups 1.1.23.

My objective is to print from this box to the other home PC which is 
running XP (192.168.174.242) and sharing an Epson R200 printer.

Follows the troubleshooting I could do by myself including an "ethereal" 
trace.

I would be grateful if any of you could help me understand what am I 
doing wrong which I suspect is related to a wrong authentication ???

TIA,
Bob

1) This is the first "anomaly". What are those messages at the bottom ? 
It's reason ?

2) I proceeded to define the printer to my linux CUPS (127.0.0.1:631) 
and this is what I see with ethereal on either box. In particular I see 
a Tree Connect AndX Request, Path: \\192.168.174.242\R200 in frame 9 
going from linux to xp and Tree Connect AndX Response, Error: 
STATUS_ACCESS_DE as the reply from xp to linux in frame 10 the Reason ?
