Well, I will give to the list the answer.

stop the samba
stop the winbindd (if you have one)
delete the /var/lib/samba/ntprinters.tdb (if you have it there)
remove all of the printers share, except the:

[printers]
        comment = All Printers
        path = /tmp
        read only = No
        create mask = 0777
        guest ok = Yes
        printable = Yes
        browseable = No


Don't use the cupsaddsmb! And it will work.

Thanks.
