 I figured out what the problem was, although it wasn't very intuitive.
 Samba 2.2.8a defaults to using CUPS now, and you need to override this.
 Furthermore, setting the 'printing' to 'bsd' does NOT set defaults for
 'print command' like it used to, so the result is that prints then fall off
 the face of the planet.  This behavior does not agree with the
 documentation which is frustrating to say the least.
 
 Thanks,
