Shawn,

When I was working in the Family and Community Medicine department over the 
summer, I did just that. I had my laptop running Linux connect to a MS Server 
2003 machine via rdesktop (krdc and Gnome Terminal services Client work well 
too.) To print, what I did was either print right from Linux to the printers 
by pointing CUPS to the printers' IP addresses for the network printers or if 
I wanted to print from the Windows server session, the printer had to be 
configured form the Windows server.

I suppose you could also use SMB printing to print from Linux to a Windows 
print server too.
