No it doesn't matter that much!

No need to reboot. Do

/sbin/service smb restart

to reload Samba. And

/sbin/service/cupds restart 
to reload cups

->Start troubleshooting. Do 
------------
lpstat -a

you should get something like: EPSON accepting requests since Jan 01 00:00
(EPSON is my printer! You should get yours)
and
--------------
lpstat -p
--------------

printer EPSON is idle.  enabled since Jan 01 00:00

or 

-----------------
lpstat -d -p
---------------

Try printing with lpr.cups instead of just an lpr and see if that makes a
difference.


->Let me see your /etc/smb.conf file and your /etc/cups/cupsd.conf so that
I can have a better idea of your system. (the relevant parts which are not
commented out!)


->Btw which printer drivers are you using?


# If you wish to configure the printers directly on the Windows clients
# (i.e. use the windows drivers on the clients) you must swap the
# 'print command' line below with the commented one.
[printers]
   comment = All Printers
   path = /var/spool/Samba
   browseable = yes
# to allow user 'guest account' to print.
   guest ok = yes
   writable = no
   printable = yes
   create mode = 0700
# =====================================
# print command: see above for details.
# =====================================
   print command = lpr-cups -P %p -o raw %s # using client side printer
drivers.
#   print command = lpr-cups -P %p %s # using cups own drivers (use
#generic PostScript on clients).
#       lpr -P %p %s
   lpq command = lpstat -o %p
   lprm command = cancel %p-%j
