just out of interest, is your printer USB attached or network? I have a very old HP Photosmart 2610 all in one and it can be USB or network attached, so it's on the network. All our laptops, our desktop and our tablets and phones (Android = Linux) are happy to print, fax, scan to/from it.

I think, but don;t quote me, you need to make sure that the printer is shared in Windows if it's USB attached, in order to use it from Linux, plus just possibly, you need to have your Linux computer set up as a SAMBA client to the Windows Samba server in order to print.
