Hello List,
i had following Problem:
Starting Cups slows down the server.
The Log File gives one error repeating every second :

get_printer_attrs: resource name '/printers/printers' no good!


What is happening here ?
If i start "top" i see that cups took about 95% of CPU Time




Following section out of smb.conf :
[global]
 printing = cups
 printcap name = cups
  load printers = yes
[printers]
comment = SMB Print Spool
        path = /var/spool/samba
        write list = @"Domain Admins" root hubrach
        guest ok = Yes
        writeable = no
        public = Yes
        use client driver = yes
        printable = Yes
        browseable = No


[print$]
        comment = Printer Drivers
        path = /var/lib/samba/drivers
        force group= "Domain Admins"
        write list = root, hubrach
        browseable = yes
        public = Yes
        guest ok = Yes
        read only = yes

My cupsd.conf :
