I do not understand? (Ignorance)
If you have public and guest set to yes why couldn’t ANY windows PC print to a linux printer? Here is the error in smbd.log
Printing/nt_printing.c:nt_printing_init(383)
nt_printing_init: error checking published printers: WERR_ACCESS_DENIED
Thanks again

make sure that the 'user' printing (there is a user even if it is a 'guest' - it would be whichever user guest is being mapped to) has write privileges to the 'spool' directory that you created in smb.conf
see
http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/CUPS-printing.html#cups-exam-simple
in the example shown above...
chmod 777 /var/spool/samba -R
