I have a linux machine and a windows xp machine, the xp machine has a printer that I would like to be able to use from my linux machine, is there any way to do this?
You may give this address directly to cups printer configuration. Eventually you need your windows login/password. On different distros there may be different ways for configuring the printer, but 'http://localhost:631' should always work.
Of course, samba and cups must be up (should be on most modern distros).
edit: found this on google in 10 seconds. Not flaming, just use the references that are available.
