If you really want to become MS free then just format and dont install
windows. Jumping straight into the deep end is the best way to achieve a
windowless existance IMO.
Id grab all the howtos and mini-howtos.
The linux doc project provides excellent information on every aspect of
linux. I can only recommend them.

printtool has always worked well for me.
you can hand edit /etc/printcap
man printcap for details
linuxconf may also have a print configuration tool, however vi and pico
work just fine for me.
