Updating Samba and Cups, now can't share printer with Windows computer

I recently updated Samba and Cups, and now I cannot share my printer with any other computers.

I can print a test page within the CUPS web interface. When I connect from windows, it gives a "Access denied, unable to connect" error. I have looked through my Samba and CUPS configuration files and could not find anything wrong.

pastebin for configuration files: http://pastebin.com/YTnYE9j7

Here is the CUPS error log:

E [06/Jun/2010:21:26:22 -0500] Returning IPP client-error-not-authorized for Print-Job (ipp://localhost:631/printers/EPSON_WorkForce_500) from localhost

E [06/Jun/2010:21:45:22 -0500] Unable to set ACLs on root certificate "/var/run/cups/certs/0" - Operation not supported

Thanks.

Yeah. Usually someone with an answer will see your post no matter where you put it. If a day goes by and you don't get an answer, go ahead a bump your original post.
