We'd love to see you at the installfest and meetings, Steve.

In the meantime, there's a very good (definitive, I might say) book
about Samba at http://us2.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/
Chapters 19 (Classical Printing Support) and 20 (CUPS Printing Support)
are as comprehensive as any I've seen regarding Linux printing, with or
without Samba.

Hope to see you soon!
