Fix the "Global parameter guest account found in service section!"

What I would suggest is to start with a stripped down smb.conf. Start with
an empty file and add ONLY what is needed to get samba running and build
one step at a time. It looks to me you are trying to add advanced stuff
without even knowing if the basics are working.

Also, I would read up on what the parameters "print command" means.

workgroup = MSHOME
server string = Samba %v at %h
interfaces = 192.168.10.9
security = SHARE
guest account = samba-user
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n
*Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n . unix password sync = Yes
syslog = 0
max log size = 1000
name resolve order = lmhosts host wins bcast
socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=4096 SO_RCVBUF=4096
printcap name = cups
os level = 34
preferred master = Yes
domain master = Yes
wins support = Yes
message command = /bin/sh -c '/usr/bin/linpopup "%f" "%m" %s; rm %s' &
hosts allow = 192.168.10., 127.
printing = cups
print command =
lpq command = %p
lprm command =

I also asked for your distribution, samba and cups versions. Since you seem
unwilling to give this information and since options have changed with
versions, I can not really help you.

I gave it my best shot, but I really can't help unless I get the information
I asked for. Good luck, hopefully someone else will be willing to try to
help with limited information.
