Cyrille,
Personally.. I would say scrap Samba printing as a printing solution between
linux/unix and XP and install a dedicated print server. HP, Linksys and D-Link
all make very good, reliable solutions that are very easy to setup and
configure.
This will save you a great deal of time, energy and headaches. Just my opinion,
mind you.
