This one is rubbish. You don't have it in smb.conf -- it's what Samba
uses as a default, but it's a bug.

To work around it, please add the explicit line to smb.conf

  lpq command = ""

(this should use the CUPS default command, because Samba should be linked
against libcups) or use

  lpq command = lpstat -o %p

explicitely which is what you'd use with CUPS on the commandline (%p gets
replaced by the actual printer name).

Dunno if this could cause the problem you're seeing...

It's probably a good idea to report this as a Samba bug in their Bug-
zilla.
