I don't know that I've ever tried it. I go through
Control Panel->Printers->Add Printer, and browse the Network
Neighborhood to find the Samba server sharing the printer, and select
the printer that way.
Here are the relevant portions of my smb.conf:
[global]
; some stuff elided, like remote announce and remote browse sync
load printers = yes
printing = cups
printcap name = cups
; some more stuff elided, like socket options, log params, and interface lists
; Authentication scheme
security = share
encrypt passwords = yes
[printers]
comment = All printers
guest ok = yes
printable = yes
Note that the host in question is set up to be both the local and preferred
master in my domain, if that makes any difference.
