Edit /etc/samba/smb.conf as follows: 
# add to [Global] section:
  printcap name = cups
  printing = cups
  security = share

# [printers] section 
[printers]
  browseable = yes
  printable = yes
  public = yes
  create mode = 0700
  guest only = yes
  use client driver = yes
  path = /tmp

 
restart samba: 
 /etc/init.d/samba restart


In windows, go to control panel/printers/add network printer. 

Browse for server computer. In it's list of printers should be the one you want 

Install the printer. A dialog may come up about downloading a printer
driver. This probably won't work but windows will go on to let wou
choose a driver from a list. 
Print a test page.
