If the Winblows machine is an NT Box (Server?) you can install "TCP/IP Printservice" and use this printer like a printer one a unix printserver (Printing Howto). If it is Win9x you need the smbclient program (from smbclient_XXX.deb): $ smbclient //server/printer > print myfile you can use the example script in /usr/doc/samba-doc/examples/printing to automate printing.
