Okay,
lets see if i understand this correct.... ;-)
you have a network with:
1 gateway/firewall to the internet (ip 192.168.0.1)
1 linux-pc which shall share his printer to the local network
   (ip 192.168.0.4)
several other linux/windows pc's which shall be able to print.
all trafic is *not* passing through the gateway.

then this line is complete rubish.
it should read

	interfaces = 192.168.0.4/24, 127.0.0.1/8

samba is telling you that (if my rudimentary frech doesn't fool me...)

it trys to open a socket on an interface with adress 192.168.0.1,
which will not succeed as it has no such interface.
