Hey Derrick,

Many thanks for the "internet printer" tip.  I had been trying to use
samba to print from Windows XP with varying success.  Specifying the
CUPS http address worked like a charm.

Some minor notes for others who are trying this:

- The URL that worked for me was http://server:631/printers/foo
- I was able to use the driver specific to the printer (instead of
  Apple Laserwriter)
- IIRC, the default CUPS config only allows local access; to allow access
  from other machines, it's necessary to add "Allow From 123.456.789.012"
  lines within the <Location /> block of /etc/cups/cupsd.conf.

Jason
