Oops, sorry. I was jumping at the obvious thing I would do.
In order to make it print to your windows printer, you need to
use smbclient. I am not sure how to do that. This will get you
started.
$ man smbclient
This of course assumes you have Samba installed.
Samba 2.0.6 is out on the stable side. On the unstable it is
2.1.x , but you should be able to get what you want with 2.0.6
or even 2.0.5 Let us know if you get it working.
