[Samba] Printing with errors ...

[Ezequiel Larrarte]

Hi people, the following bug makes some error messages to appear al log
level 0 when they are supposed to be al level 3.

Any guy at the printer team could tell if I am safe printing with all those
messages and why they are generated? Only a few computers are affected in
my network.

Thanks!
