Sounds like a credentials error.
What's the printer device URI you're connecting to? It generally needs
to be in the format:
smb://DOMAIN/USER:PASSWORD@hostname/printer
(Where "DOMAIN" is only really necessary in a true Windows/Samba domain).
The user/pass combo needs to be the same on Windows, Linux/Samba and
Linux/Passwd/Shadow.
Alternatively, setting Windows to use "simple file sharing" and allowing
full access to the printer will negate the need for the user/pass to be
sent along.
