Sharing Printers w/ Win2K machine and Samba



I'm trying to share my parrallel port printer through samba to my win2k
laptop, and getting the following error in my log.smbd when i try to
connect from the laptop:

[2001/09/30 22:00:31, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(239)
  littlejoe (192.168.0.4) couldn't find service
::{2227a280-3aea-1069-a2de-08002b30309d}

my smb.conf file is as attached, printing works fine from the debian box
through both CUPS and LPR...

--begin smb.conf--
;*******************section global*****************
[global]
printing = cups
printcap name = /etc/printcap.cups
load printers = yes
guest account = nobody
netbios name = sweeze
security = share
workgroup = BURBANK
server string = testing
syslog only = no
syslog = 0;
socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=4096
SO_RCVBUF=4096
encrypt passwords = yes
wins support = no
name resolve order = lmhosts host wins bcast
dns proxy = no
preserve case = yes
short preserve case = yes
unix password sync = true
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n
*Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n .
max log size = 1000


--share information here--

[homes]
comment = Home Directories
browseable = no
read only = no
writeable = yes
create mask = 0700
directory mask = 0700
;*******************section printers*****************
[printers]
comment = All Printers
valid users = jbarnett
browseable = no
path = /var/spool/cups/tmp/
guest ok = Yes
print ok = Yes
printable = yes
public = yes
writable = yes
create mode = 0700
--end smb.conf--

any ideas why I can't form a good connection (it used to work, not sure
what has changed since it stopped, since I'm not sure exaclty when it
stopped working)

Thanks,
Joe
