You'll be having fun!! I'm in the process of doing the smae thing!!
Try googling around, I have mostly been editing cups.conf and samba configuration files for the last two days...
Your printer's address might be something like
http://"server's ip":631/printers/"name of printer"
This is assuming you are using samba and cups
