Hi,

With help from the ubuntu-nl forum I managed to get the printer working over the network.

I configured with cups at http://localhost:631/admin

Adding the printer by doing a network search (old way) gave me that error. (I guess it was using samba for network printing here because my printers adress was starting with smb:// ).
But adding the printer with the cups administration panel works just fine.

Since I already had the updated cups on my system I can't tell if this bug affected me or not but I can print now over the network.

Could be another bug (samba) or I did not configure samba correctly. I don't care anymore because it works now.

Thanks.
