Hello Dragan,
I looked at your smb.conf, modified mine and tried again .
I always got the same error.
So I decided to look at internet, to find new information about cup and
samba, to better understand how cups and samba work and their architecture.
I notably found 'Printing Support in Samba 3.0' and 'tutorial on cups and
foomatic (kongress 2002)'.
When reading, I made again some modifications in smb.conf.
Above all, I think it was at least a problem with the spool samba
directory. It was defined in smb.conf, but the directory did not exist !
With all these modifications, I can now print from Windows NT client (I
still have problems with W2000 and XP: I continue on reading, may it is a
problem of drivers).
In fact, I repeat the same install on Suse 8.2, after doing it on RH 9.0,
which works better up to now).
The more satisfactory is that I have made some progress,and it starts
running.
Thank you for your support and for your help.
Regards,
Nadine

Hi Nadine,
I have edited your smb.conf to best match my own setup.
Lines beginning with "-" sign should be commented out.
By most of them there is a short comment why. Lines
beginning with "+" sign are new lines I added to make
it look more like my setup.
It should work at your side, but don't forget to first
create the default mode by accessing the printer as
root and performing the ritual I described in on of my
previous letters.
Good luck.
