That's what I would do. In addition, I'd also post this issue at the samba mailing list to get more feedback. First, as you say, samba should not give a time out for a CUPS thingy, that's something for the samba team to look further and run some tests to debug. And secondly, having CUPS enabled by default it can be a matter of taste: some people can argue it is useful while others find not gain at all.
