Has anyone had this problem before?

This is what the slackbuild for CUPS 1.2.4 in /testing/source/cups1.2.4 has to say
Code:
# For full CUPS SMB support, you'll need to install the cups-samba
# package from the source in this directory. There's no easy way
# to add that to a package build, and the requests aren't pouring in,
# so you'll have to install it yourself. It's easy to do.
# However, this will get you the most useful SMB support for free.
# Thanks to Boris Kurktchiev for the tip. :-)
( cd $PKG/usr/lib/cups/backend
if [ ! -e smb ]; then
ln -sf /usr/bin/smbspool smb
fi
)
I suspect you will either have to do this or see if there is a pre-complied package on LinuxPackages or Slacky.It.
Adobe Acrobat on Windows won't print to CUPS.
