I've had the same issues on every Windows network I've worked with. Windows
printing is just plain flaky sometimes. Squid has nothing to do with
printing, so this definitely isn't a Squid issue. 

Is is possibly an issue with your Linux gateway, but only if one of the
following is true:

1) The gateway is also a network print server
2) Clients go through the gateway to get to the print server

If either of those is true, I would suggest asking on a mailing list for
your Linux distribution.

Depends on how you are printing. Check your client configuration.

Windows File/Print Sharing usually uses TCP ports 139 or 445 (depending on
client and server Windows version). Network printing via LPR/LPD is on TCP
port 515. Raw printing to many networked printers (such as HP JetDirect
print servers) is on TCP port 9100.

Again, this isn't a Squid issue, so you will likely get more useful help by
asking on a different list.
