Well, I had been think about how to use samba to do this.  I had all the
pieces, but couldn't make that mental leap.
It is possile to have the queue displayed with the printer.  I haven't
actually done this, yet.  I don't have a Micro$oft machine at home any
more.
Anyway, there is a web page for faxing with samba and sendfax & mgetty
that describe what I was thinging of.  It also provides another tool
that can be used to fax from Win95.
And the URL is:
  http://infaut.et.uni-magdeburg.de/~horstf
It is in German and English.
If you get to making the scripts for the queue and printing (before I
do), please post them.
