Two ways:

     1. Using IPP, point the CUPS queue to the Windows queue by
        using a device URI of:

            http://windowsname/printers/sharename/.printer

     2. Using LPD, enable the TCP/IP Printing Service and then point
        the CUPS queue to the Windows queue with the following LPD
        device URI:

            lpd://windowsname/sharename
