Printing in SoC for Mac OS X 10.7 Lion

I finally got printing to work again on OS X 10.7 Lion following instructions from Comment #1 here. Basically add the printer via cups, not system preferences.
  1. Point Safari to http://localhost:631
  2. Select top menu "Administration"
  3. Select "Add Printer"
  4. Authenticate if requested
  5. Select "Windows printer via spoolss" and press "Continue"
  6. Use the following sintaxe to add the printer "smb://DOMAIN;LOGIN:PASSWORD@SERVER/PRINTQUEUE" in the "Connection" field and press "Continue" (replace CAPITALS with your own configuration)
  7. Introduce a name in the "Name" field, for example MyPrinter
  8. Select your printer Manufacturer from the "Make" list and press "Continue"
  9. Select your printer Model from the "Model" list and press "Add Printer"
