I had the same problem w/ my HP DJ 932C and I stumbled upon this solution


[printers]

         path = /var/spool/samba
         browseable = no
         guest ok = yes
         writable = no
         printable = yes
         create mode = 0700
         print command = lpr -P %p -o raw %s -r
         lpq command = lpstat -o %p
         lprm command = cancel %p-%j
