  You can use Samba. This will allow you to use (or Host) Windows based File and Print services.

  Personally, if you have only two machines, just use Linux as the client. However, if you do not mind reconfiguring a couple machines, consider ‘sharing’ the printer from the linux machine.

  If you solve that question, you should close it.
