I wouldn't even attempt to use a SMBprinter from another linux box,
it just seems like way too much trouble. On the workstation, just
define the server's printer as anotehr "unix/lpd" printer, and
give the IP address (or hostname) of the server, and the name of the
print queue on the server. Should work without difficulty.
