I've no info 'bout your specific printer, sorry.
http://www.linuxprinting.org is the common suggestion for information
on this.
AFAIK, CUPS is probably the way to go for networking, and Samba comes
into play with Windows machines, IIRC.
Getting things set up is far, far easier than when I started with
Linux. CUPS itself is pretty decent at getting you going by itself.
