You might want to try sharing it as a CUPS printer.
Try searching the internet for "share CUPS printer
with Windows" or something similar.

Howdy,
I'm having trouble getting my printer to share to my
other Windows
computers on my network via Samba. The funny thing
is that I had this
set up a coupla years ago on FC2, and it was a piece
of cake. Now,
there's nothing but problems.
I turned on Samba and browsing for printers in
Samba. My Windows
machines can now see my Linux machine via the
Network Neighborhood, but
not the printer.
I turned on printer sharing in the
system-config-printer utility, but
that doesn't seem to make a difference.
Here's the printer part of my smb.conf
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = yes
# Set public = yes to allow user 'guest account' to
print
guest ok = yes
; writeable = no
printable = yes
public = yes
Any tips?
Thanks,
what does your cupsd.conf look like? what about the permissions in
cupsd.conf with regard to the individual printers? what does your samba
log say. what does your cups log say?
