Has the share name been used previously? Use a unique share name. I have
seen this when one attempts to unshare PRINTER1 then change the printer2
sharename to PRINTER1. The spooler keeps the PRINTER1 share associated with
the original printer even though it is no longer shared (in the case where
you stop sharing then enable again later). Change the PRINTER1 sharename to
another name, then change the printer2 to PRINTER1. Then unshare the
original printer.
