[Samba] access DENIED for non-printserver bits

[L.P.H. van Belle]

Ok, 

If it does not matter, tell me which printer driver version are you using.

V3 or V4 that is one you should know, because if its a "V4" driver, 
then its not supported by samba.
And samba doe only support non-packaged aware printer drivers. ( see wiki ) 

Are you using spoolss or spoolssd ?

Then provide the asked information, then i can help, without i can not.

And i hoop you did read :
