retitle 381609 fails at startup if cups printer doesn't work correctly
severity 381609 normal
thank you

I found the culprit: my printer had crashed ...

I have a Lexmark E240n, which is IPP capable and configured as a cups
printer on the machine. Although my smb.conf has "load printers = no"
samba apparently feels the need to communicate with the printer on
startup.

Seems the printer was in an undefined state (at least the web
interface was down) and terribly confused samba.

Not closing the bug myself because:
- I'm not 100% convinced that that's the end of it. Even though I
can't reproduce the problem anymore after a powercycle of the printer
it might be something else entirely.
- samba shouldn't hang with no comment in the logs, regardless of how
broken cups is

Regards,

C.
