You can enable 'BSD' AKA UNIX printing,  but you have to set this up
on Windows XP and 2000 systems by adding the protocol support through
the Control Panel/Add Software/Windows/Additional Services
or a similar path.  You can then get the system to use the LPD (RFC1179)
protocol to send the job to the printer.
