[Samba] APW greyed out for printer admin

Greetings,

We're running samba 3.0.23 (ADS domain member) and cups 1.2.2 on debian 
sarge to serve printing to XP clients.

I have a user with the required priveleges to install and set print 
driver options using the Add Printer Wizard:
# net rpc rights list 'SOMEDOMAIN\suarezry'
SeMachineAccountPrivilege
SeTakeOwnershipPrivilege
SeBackupPrivilege
SeRestorePrivilege
SeRemoteShutdownPrivilege
SePrintOperatorPrivilege
SeAddUsersPrivilege
SeDiskOperatorPrivilege

But when I log in from an XP client and go to 
"Start->run->\\printserver->Printers and Faxes->[right click on any 
printer] Properties->Advanced", all the options are greyed out.

Does anyone know why this is not working?  I'm attaching smb.conf and a 
trace log for your perusal.

much appreciated,
Ryan
