This isn't exactly what you want, but using ipp you can print to a cups server 
directly from WinXP - no Samba involved.

For samba, you are probably looking for the "guest ok = yes" parameter. I have 
the smb.example.conf that Gentoo distributes, it's well commented & fairly 
detailed. I can send it to you off-list if you like.
