    To be honest: no idea :p

    It's pretty easy in KDE and Gnome though, are you using a desktop environment?

    Ah, I thought you meant accessing it directly. If you can connect to it by IP, you probably don't need to worry about domain authentication for it - try just adding it as a standard network printer, using the IP (and TCP 9100)
