the default samba configuraion file will do this just fine without any
changes. Have you setup your Linux printer? If you have it should show
up in XP already I would assume.

For me I set up a RAW Queue and installed the actual driver on windows
box because it wouldnt do a network install from samba. then I pointed
the driver toward the real printer on the linux box.
