You mean the remote machine should print to the printer connected to the
client? DOSEMU can't solve that itself. Quite complicated.
You might be able to figure out the hostname who logged in ("who am i"
may help) and route it via a "smbclient" Linux script which does something
like
smbclient //smbserver/printer -c 'print -'
This should print to the printer share at smbserver from stdin.
(see "man smbclient")
I have no idea if that really works but I don't see any reason why not.
