From the samba documentation: "Successful printing from a Windows client via a Samba print server to a UNIX printer involves six (potentially seven) stages: 3.Windows sends a copy of the print file over the network into Samba's spooling area. 5. Samba invokes the print command to hand the file over to the UNIX print subsystem's spooling area." I am naturally with admin priviledges on windows side. I am though almost certain it is some little configuration err. As always.
