I upgraded to Samba 3.5.9 and seemed to have a little better luck.  Now the driver downloads but fails to connect with error c1.  Here is my smb.conf:

[global]
        workgroup = NCS
        realm = NCS.NORTHLAKECHRISTIAN.ORG
        server string = Print Server - Samba Server Version %v
        preferred master = no
        security = ADS
        ;guest account = kbusbee
        printcap name = cups
        idmap uid = 15000-20000
        idmap gid = 15000-20000
        winbind enum users = Yes
        winbind enum groups = Yes
        winbind use default domain = Yes
        guest ok = Yes
        template shell = /bin/bash

[homes]
        comment = Home Directories
        valid users = %S
        read only = No
        browseable = No

[printers]
        comment = All Printers
        path = /var/spool/samba
        valid users = root, kbusbee, @samba-printers, "@NCS\domain users", NCS\\lbusbee, guest
        read only = No
        printable = Yes
        browseable = No
        guest ok = yes
        writable = No

[printdrivers]
        comment = Printer Drivers
        path = /shares/printdrivers
        #write list = @samba-printers, root, kbusbee, NCS\kbusbee, guest
        read only = No

[print$]
        comment = Printer Driver Download Area
        path = /etc/samba/drivers
        #write list = @samba-printers, root, kbusbee, NCS\kbusbee, everyone, @"NCs\Domain Users"
        read only = No


I have read as much as I can via google, and tweeked the fire out of this file.  I seem to have good access now, but just can't get these drivers to load.
