Add this to your .emacs :

        (setq lpr-command "print")
        (setq printer-name "//SERVER/PRINTER")

- replace SERVER with the server name and PRINTER with the printer's 
share name. To print just choose "Print Buffer". Postscript doesn't work 
too well - at least not on my printer (HP LaserJet 1100).
