[Samba] Weird problems with printing

Just swapped our Solaris SAMBA PDC for a SuSE Linux machine. It's the domain
controller as well as print server (via CUPS). It's running SuSE 9.3 with
Samba-3.0.20b.
The setup is identical to the old Solaris machine, had to re-add all machines
to the domain. Has been working OK for 2 days then suddenly some people
couldn't print and I can no longer add printers to any XP machine.
Nothing has changed in the last couple of days (though obviously something has).
When I try to add a printer now as a non-admin user I now get this error:
"You do not have sufficient access to your computer to connect the selected printer"
When I add as a (domain) admin it asks for a print driver. Previously printers
were being added with no problem.
Anyone got any ideas? Am a bit desperate.
Below is my smb.conf file:
[global]
workgroup = BOSTON
server string = %h
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
load printers = yes
printing = cups
printcap name = cups
domain master = yes
domain logons = yes
local master = yes
preferred master = yes
name resolve order = wins lmhosts host bcast
wins support = yes
os level = 65
encrypt passwords = yes
security = user
logon script = netlogon.bat
logon path = \\%N\profile\%a\%u
logon drive = q:
socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY
[profile]
comment = User Profiles
path = /home/samba_shark/profile
browseable = no
guest ok = yes
writeable = yes
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /home/samba_shark/var/spool/public
browseable = no
public = yes
guest ok = yes
writable = no
printable = yes
[print$]
comment = Printer Drivers
path = /home/samba_shark/drivers
browseable = yes
guest ok = yes
read only = yes
write list = root
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
browseable = yes
guest ok = no
writable = yes
[netlogon]
comment = Network Logon Service
path = /home/samba_shark/%a/netlogon
guest ok = yes
writeable = no
share modes = no
This is what is in my drivers dir:
