Sorry, but I had been so happy to get the samba printing started that I 
totally forgot to
answer your questions.

Each time xfprint4 is invoked from a console (root or user) the messages are
as follows (after bringing up the file dialog):

(xfprint4:#job no.) Warning: failed request with status 1030 #4 times
segmentation fault
That should not occur (pointer set to something not allowed?)

So it is. Please inform me, when the bug is being fixed.
