Hi,
I am with a SUSE 8.0 with Samba 2.2.5, I am with about 20 computers with
Windows 98 accessing the files and printers on the samba server! The
file access is all OK, but the printer access is slow! when I send a
printer job from the windows is takes about a 1 minute to transfer 3 MB
spool file to samba spool to start printing! I dont know why! when too
many peoples print at the same time the all network stay slow.! the
computer is a Pentium III 600 with 384MB ram! I am using LPRNG, the
printcap pass thru a Print server. 
printcap of the samba!

Have you checked, with tcpdump or looking at your samba logs, that the transfer rate is really slow, not that there is a delay due to the windows clients holding the jobs before they send them? Does this happen will all printer queues? Could this be a specific printer driver problem? And, the delay is getting the jobs spooled on your samba server, not getting them accepted on your print server?

Yes! the transfer of the Spool only is really slow! the problem is with all printers. Maybe can be the LPD! there is a delay (about 10 seconds) when the linux is starting the service! (LPD).

Just a thought, but, is this dos or a windows program doing the printing? Does this delay happen when you send print jobs directly from the samba server? You do have one odd think in your /etc/printcap. You are using the samba spool directory as the spool directory for the lprng. Is this a good idea?
