OK, I don't really understand why you need to do it, but here you go:
* Try with no arguments first:
kde4@kde-bitshop:> smbspool
network smb "Unknown" "Windows Printer via SAMBA"
* Try with one dummy-argument:
kde4@kde-bitshop:> smbspool dummy
Usage: smbspool [DEVICE_URI] job-id user title copies options [file]
The DEVICE_URI environment variable can also contain the
destination printer:
smb://[username:password@][workgroup/]server/printer
* "Aa-haaaa..."
The command wants to use the DEVICE_URI environment variable, plus
5 or 6 arguments (5 if it gets input from stdin, 6 if the printjob
is a file).
* Try this:
DEVICE_URI="smb://skydive:happylanding@cessnaclub/piper/hp_670C"
1111 skydive2 "An SMB Print Job" 2
"sides=two-sided-long-edge" /etc/samba/smb.conf
skydive - username
happylanding - password
cessnaclub - workgroupname
piper - servername
hp_670C - printersharename
1111 - job-ID (you may invent one)
skydive2 - user (you may invent one)
"An SMB Print Job" - job title (you may set one)
2 - number of requested copies
"sides=two-sided-long-edge" - print job options (you may set more,
comma-separated, if CUPS is the printing system underneath the Samba print
server (*))
/etc/samba/smb.conf - the file you want to print
(*) won't work against a Windows print server!
* Works for me!

No more than the above...
Cheers & happy printing!
