In case anyone comes across this and is interested. Set the fileserver to us raw data for the driver on the samba port instead of the printer driver. The on the client machines set them to use the file server's samba share for the printer and use the correct driver for the printer. At least it worked for me with a lazerjet 4050 on the windows box.

I have a seperate smb fileserver on the network. I set up a que on the file server for the remote printer and can send test pages ok. I want to share that printer to other windows/linux boxes from samba on the file server so that if something happens to the windows box I can just make one change on the file server and all boxes on the network will print to a new location. IE I take the printer off the dead windows box and put it on another one giving the file server new que information to look at the new windows box. If I set a linux box up to use the samba share right now, I get the raw postscript data out of the printer. Should the file server look at the windows box as an lpr and the remote client look at the file server as a postscript printer?
