Some things you can possibly check are
1) Permissions on the printer on the Windows side. Make sure that group
"Everyone" has "Print" access allowed.
2) In group Policy (gpedit.msc) on the Windows host, check
2a) Local Computer Policy -> Computer Configuration -> Windows Settings
-> Local Policies -> User Rights Assignment -> Access this computer from
a network
2b) Local Computer Policy -> Computer Configuration -> Windows Settings
-> Local Policies -> User Rights Assignment -> Deny access to this
computer from the network
Other than that, I'm at a loss being as though I enabled "UNIX print
services" in order to print to a Windows box...
