Hi Michael: At any O.S. the printing proces has two stages clearly defined: The capture of printout of any application and encoding to format a file with te appropiate language to the printer. The spooling to route the file created above, to reach the printig device, without no one judgement, just as printing a file to the apropiate path. Samba server doesnt make any process over the file what is arriving to it, just spool it, and any more. That you dont worry about the driver that Linux uses to print, this is only the first stage that i told you before. This driver is only needed to generate the file that will be spooled to print locally. You'll generate the first stage at your Windows machine, with its respective driver.
