Yes. Just use Samba ... 

Now, if you are using Windows NT, I think you can also send print jobs to
an LPD spooler. However, if you are using WfWg, Win9X or WinME, you will
want to use Samba.

See one of the fine books on Samba for the gorry details, or look at the
Samba docs directory.

In July, Special Edition, Using Samba will also be available :-)
