My thanks to everyone for their suggestions. I can summarize recent developments as follows:
1) after adding "use client driver = yes" (as Daniel suggests below), the "access denied" message went away, but printing from a remote Windows client still failed.
2) printing to the same device ("\\penguin\lp") from the same remote client succeeds from a DOS window if I first set up a local print device via the command "net use lpt1: \\penguin\lp" and then printed a simple test file from the command line.
when i updated, i had a similar problem:
printing from a netadmin - was ok...
printing from a netuser - access denied...
this was my print section:
[printers]
comment = All Printers
browseable = no
printable = yes
public = yes
read only = no
create mode = 0666
path = /netzwerk/print
unfortunally (in samba 2.0.X al was running) i did not have 'x' - rights on /netzwerk/print - i've changed rights of this temp directory - and all was running fine.
one user was still not able to print over samba...
so if i tried to install the printer over 'new printer' - 'network' - ...
he got always 'access denied'...
now i've installed this printer over 'new printer' - 'local printer' - 'new port' - 'local port' - '\\<server>\<printerport>' - ...
and *jippppeyyy* the printer did run.
i don't know what happend at this time, because all other w2k machines, which was linked after this, where running well without workaround. - seems this machine did store something in registry, which causes teh error...
it's only a experience, but i hope, it's something in for u...
