Samba Printer Compatability?

[Zach]

Where's any pages saying what printers Samba can be hooked up to for print serving? I have an OfficeJet 520 I'd like to replace on my regular machine, and a couple spare systems with no printer...

So it's either use a Linux print server setup or buy one..

I looked at Samba.org, only saw references to forking out a windows file to conversion, don't know if that's viable with some of the HP processer using type products? Not too much explanation was granted...

Samba itself doesn't print. It forwards the stuff to the print daemon. This means you should check http://www.linuxprinting.org/ for what is supported and what is not

So I setup the printer to work on the workstation, then tell Samba to share it to my Windows machines?

yes. there is a printing setup section that you can probably not worry about and then a printer share section that you'll need to configure
