I finally got it working!!!

After taking the PPD file generated by XP and replacing the one from CUPS I was able to configure the printer correctly, add it to Samba and now it is working. Great!!

I found out that the Cups-o-matic generated PPDs will all cause the crash, while CUPS native ones are working ok (it is also ok to setup the printer as a HP Laserjet CUPS 1.1 for example).

The problem I described above was probably caused by inconsistencies between the CUPS PPD and the one I offered via Samba (stupid, I know).

Thanks anyway,
Michael
