Whats the current errors? your previous pastebins have expired so i can't check.

I notice you are not pushing printer drivers via a printers$ share so
should you have "use client driver = yes"

What messages do you get from the windows client, the samba logs for
the machine connecting and the cups log? I know you've been around
this loop once before, but i spent a lot of time yesterday fighting
exactly this and got 3 networked printers working with printer driver
zero config for windows clients as well working
