Hi, you see I didn't forget you :p
After some readings (that Using Samba book is really awesome), I changed 
the security type, installed winbind, and finally made it work flawlessly.
Here's my smb.conf for your information

# Global parameters
[global]
    workgroup = ATEMPO
    netbios name = PAPYRUS2
    server string = papyrus le retour (%v)
    log file = /var/log/samba3/log.%m
    max log size = 50
    printer admin = ATEMPO+joris
    load printers = no
    printing = cups
    security = domain
    password server = *
    os level = 15
    local master = no
    domain master = no
    encrypt passwords = yes
    winbind separator = +
    winbind cache time = 10
    idmap uid = 10000-20000
    idmap gid = 10000-20000
    template homedir = /home/%D/%U
    template shell = /bin/false

[print$]
    comment = Drivers Imprimantes
    path = /etc/samba/printer
    write list = ATEMPO+joris
    browseable = yes
    read only = yes

# one printer
[mis1700]
    comment = Dell 1700n - MIS - RDC
    path = /var/spool/samba
    printable = yes
    write list = ATEMPO+joris


My bad was my misunderstood of the documentation I found @samba.org 
because as I said before, english isn't my native language.
Anyway, thanks for your help all, i appreciated it really :)

See you soon, that list is just great ;)

PS: Sorry, i just saw that instead of replying to the list, I replied 
some of my mail to a person :(
