If a cups printer is exported via samba, Windows clients do not see the printers location field using i.e. Windows Explorer. Setting the Location manually via a Windows Client succeeds and is not resetted after a restart of samba or when calling cupsaddsmb. I've tried this using 3.5.6 and also 3.5.8. At least with 3.2.x it works. OS: Debian GNU/Linux Squeeze 32Bit with default 2.6.32 Kernel Samba: 3.5.8-27-Sernet CUPS: 1.4.4-7
I have a fix for this, attaching soon.

Karolin, you meant you pushed to 3-5-test, right ? ;-) In 3-6-test we solved this differently.
