You can do that with any printer. You're essentially sharing the port,
not the driver. Just set it as a raw queue and install drivers on the
windows boxes. It won't necessarily work from Linux that way, though
(if that's a requirement).
I've been printing to all sorts of winprinters attached to Linux servers
via USB/Parallel ports over the years this way.
