I have seen this same problem. I have more problems. My printer share name is
TheLaserPrinter.
When looking in the /etc/cups/printers.conf file, this name is truncated to
TheLaserPri
Also any User/password information I entered are NOT recorded in this file.

I can use smbclient //vaio/TheLaserPrinter and I can successfull connect to the
printer.
Even after making changes to the /etc/cups/printers.conf file, I still am not
able to print to the known working shared printer.
