Default Spool Server

I’ve a jetdirect with three printers connected in each port.
My idea is to use my linux server as a spool server to my windows clients,
killing my windows server.

Does anyone know any document that explains the way to set up LPRng or CUPS?

LPRng or CUPS?

Thanks,

If you don't want to spend a lot of time scratching your head, I'd go with
CUPS and the gimp-print package. You could probably get everything working
in under 15 minutes.
