[Samba] samba print server

  Is it possible to create a linux samba based print server to be used
  by Windows 98, 2000, and XP home edition?

  I've successfully create a linux samba based file server, but I have
  not been able to get the print server functional. My printers are an
  HP4L (laserjet) and an HP882C (deskjet).

  I'm using Red Hat 7.2 and installed samba 2.2.7a

  My print shares use the load default process and I use user level
  security. The users can get to the home drives but printers just
  don't work.

  The users are able to print locally.

  I tried accessing from another linux machine via samba and it was
  unsuccessful.

  I have only spent about 300 hours on linux, so I'm a newbie.
  

any help would be appreciated.
