Your smb.conf looks correct to me.  Have you tried forcing smbd to reload
its config files (/etc/rc.d/smbd reload as root)?  When cupsd starts, then
depending on the complexity of your printer configuration, it can take up
to several minutes for cupsd to settle down to a state where it can
respond to IPP requests.  If smbd is started before cupsd can begin to
answer requests, then when smbd queries cupsd for printers, it will get no
response and assume that there is no CUPS daemon running on the network,
and thus list no printers.
