Windows Environment shared Printer

Hi, in my office, we have a shared printer connected on a router but, for financial reasons, my Debian is cross-connected to a Windows XP client that share the printer. I've setup the printer with CUPS on my Debian using the driver 'HP LaserJet 8100 Series' from the foomatic-gui package. Then I get these error in the log file:

E [14/Dec/2005:17:42:43 -0500] ERRDOS - ERRbadaccess (Invalid open mode.) opening remote$
E [14/Dec/2005:17:42:44 -0500] PID 3655 stopped with status 1!

That happened after I set up the smbclient to connect with a login and password because on guest mode, I get the following error: "NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED".

Could it be my Debian printer config or the Windows client which blocks the connection?

I would if I could, but I never managed to make it work with Windows/Samba settings in CUPS. Sorry.
