I have about 10 printers installed through cups (all working via test
page printing via cups webpage). Roughly half of these are experiencing
this problem with samba.
When I run
[root at pluto ~]# rpcclient localhost -U'root%j3yThEiH' -c "enumprinters"
flags:[0x800000]
name:[\\LOCALHOST\]

comment:[HP laserjet 3015]
-- truncated
half of them are missing the queue name part in the name field...
And when I try to connect to these from windows I get
Connect to Printer. Windows couldn't connect to the printer. Check the
printer name and try again. If this is a network printer, make sure that
the printer is turned on, and that the printer address is correct.
[root at pluto ~]# testparm
