strange samba share

Hi,

In my samba configuration, I have a strange share.

Share name: MyPrinter
Shared folder: /var/spool/samba
comment = lp
read only = No
print ok = Yes

The spool directory /var/spool/samba has been shared as a printer.

What will be the harm caused by it ?
(i don't know who shared such). I know i need to fix it.But I also wanted to know the security issue due to it..

Thank you

That looks like a default out of the box printer share configuration. Comment it out if you do not use it.
