Looks like it may be cups...

...Turned out that one of the CUPS mime configuration files had been 
overwritten in the update so CUPS would no longer accept "raw" print 
files from Samba clients...

/etc/cups/mime.convs

# Uncomment the following filter to allow printing of arbitrary files
# without the -oraw option.
#

application/octet-stream application/vnd.cups-raw 0 -

(was commented out. Removed comment, restarted cups and samba.)

No more crashes.

Perhaps Samba can't handle something cups is saying about not being able 
to do raw printing.
