+You don't require samba to print from an XP client through a FreeBSD CUPS server to your printer.  It's easier to do this without samba actually.  It doesn't matter if you have samba installed though.
 Simply get your printers working under CUPs and on the local server and test these.  Then on the windows box add a new network printer and point that printer to your server by using the URL section of the wizard.

 ===CUPS and Gnome Warning===
-I've installed CUPS on a few machines and found everytime I do I cannot print though any gnome based application.  If you like to use gnome applications to print your work, don't install CUPS just use LPD.
+In order to have CUPS work with Gnome applications and Firefox3, you will need to add 'WITH_CUPS="YES"' to your /etc/make.conf and recompile libgnomeprint and gtk20.  You can do that with the commands:
+ # echo 'WITH_CUPS="YES"' >> /etc/make.conf
-programs which crashed right out when printing were:
+ # cd /usr/ports/print/libgnomeprint && make deinstall && make configure && make install
-gedit, abiword, gnumeric, inkscape.
