Samba runs on TCP ports 139 and 445 and UDP ports 137 and 138.

[printers]
        comment = All Printers
        path = /var/spool/samba
        browseable = no
        guest ok = no
        writable = no
        printable = yes

# Un-comment the following and create the netlogon directory for Domain Logons
;       [netlogon]
