Sorry for bothering you again, but I just noticed another problem,
which I think it's related. That printer was shared on the network
through Samba:

[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = yes
writable = no
guest ok = no
public = no
printable = yes
share modes = no
locking = no

I just noticed that both my Mac and Windows box cannot see it anymore
(while I can still happily browse the shared folders on the same Gutsy
box). Could it still be related to CUPS?
