Yes I believe that is the problem, samba may require a username/password to 
gain access to printers, what i did was create a user on my linux box and 
create the same user on my winxp box with the same passwords and make sure 
they are part of the same workgroup and when I goto My Network Places samba 
shows up without prompting for a password.

hope this helps.
