[Samba] samba server does not list shares of type Pritner

[Shirish Pargaonkar]

Samba server does not list/return share type of Printer.
It only does Disk and IPC$.

In /etc/samba/smb.conf, [global] section has
        load printers = yes
        cups options = raw

        printcap name = /etc/printcap
        #obtain list of printers automatically on SystemV
;       printcap name = lpstat
        printing = cups

There is this section.

[printers]
        comment = All Printers
        path = /var/spool/samba
        browseable = no
        guest ok = yes
        writable = no
        printable = yes


The directory /var/spool/samba is empty.
cupsd and smbd are running.

When I run either command 'net share' or
smbclient -L localhost -U smbguest -N

I see only IPC$ and Disk type of shares.
It is as if Samba server is oblivious to the printers section.

Is it possible that this Samba server was built without the
capacity to use/display  shares of type Printer?
How would one know?

rpc_api_pipe: host localhost returned 1000 bytes.
     srvsvc_NetShareEnumAll: struct srvsvc_NetShareEnumAll

lists all shares but of type Printer.

-d 10 output shows this

doing parameter load printers = yes
doing parameter cups options = raw
doing parameter printcap name = /etc/printcap
doing parameter printing = cups

# cat /etc/printcap
