[Samba] printing impossible on win98 and samba 3.0.10

[Erik Thiele]

Hello,

i am using net-fs/samba-3.0.10 on an updated gentoo linux on x86 machine.
recently i was using some older version, probably 3.0.9
i didn't change my smb.conf but now printing from windows 98 clients does
not work anymore.

the errormessage on win98 is (translated from german):

Error when writing on \\master\stylus1160 vor printer (EPSON Stylus Color 1160):
The network printer ist not anymore available. Call the system administrator
or use another printer.

printing from windows xp to the same samba server works without problems.
