Hello,

Please make sure, you have

printing = cups
printcap name = cups

also in your smb.conf.

When you have added a printer with cups, you could either restart your 
samba processes (/etc/init.d/samba restart - or something like that) or 
send them a signal to re-read the configuration.

killall -1 smbd

should do that.

Bye,

Martin
