[ale] home network printer(s)

[Allan Neal]

I have a laser printer and an HP deskjet hooked up to my Linux box.  The Linux
box acts as a squid proxy, gateway, mailserver, and SAMBA file server and
SAMBA/Cups print server.  The Windows box can print to both printers without
issue.  Works really well.
