I have a printer attached to my Hardy server which I'd like to share with my Mac Book running Leopard. I realize there's a number of ways to do this but I'm wondering if there's a preferred method by anyone? Samba? IPP?

Cups does it quite easily, it works fine with Windows/Linux so one would assume it would work fine with MacOS as well. It's easier to setup than Samba too.

Samba is pretty easy also, just make sure it is using cups to share the printers. It should be easier to share with OSX, as it supports a lot more file systems than WIndows.
