Yes the printer works fine when I first set it up until cupsys gets
restarted. When I do a cupsys restart the printer still shows as being
"Ready" however sending a print job to it results in a "Printer Paused"
result.

I noticed when I started the gnome-cups-manager from a terminal that
when I first installed the printer and opened up the properties menu a
list of ppd info gets printed to the terminal and the last of the info
is the connection details. When cupsys is restarted the connection
details gets dropped.

Example
When I have established a connection to the windows printer the last of the terminal information after opening up the Properties box is

** (gnome-printer-view:8176): WARNING **: method        :'smb'
user    :'#$'
host    :'ASOFSVR'
port    :0
resource        :'/Kyoc_Up'

After doing a /etc/init.d/cupsys restart I now get this when the
Properties menu is opened

** (gnome-printer-view:8401): WARNING **: method        :'smb'
user    :''
host    :''
port    :0
resource        :'/'


Cheers
