Hi, I convert my .dvi files to Postscript (dvips) and print them under Windows with GSview (which itself uses Ghostscript for rendering). GSview supports many printers via the Ghostscript drivers (which are the same as those of the Linux Ghostscript), but also has a printer driver called ms*2 (I don't recall the exact name) that uses the Windows printing system and can therefore print on anything Windows supports. I use that for printing to my GDI printer. URL for GSview/Windows Ghostscript: http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/aladdin/get550.html
You could also use a Windows TeX distribution such as miktex, they have their own DVI previewers that can also print through windows (but this takes much more disk space). Finally, you could use pdftex/pdflatex, which compiles .tex files directly into .pdf and use Acrobat Reader on the windows side. This one takes a bit of configuration work on the Linux side, because you really want to use native Type1 font instead of Metafont .pk fonts (tetex includes Type1 versions of the Computer Modern fonts). I would take the GSview route, though.
