I'm not seeing good examples of this. We have hundreds of printers in our Enterprise. I want to configure CUPS to forward print requests to the Windows Print Server with minimal processing. SaMBa is not an option for security reasons.



I can't be the first person in this scenario, but I have not yet found any documentation for this use case. Basically, all I'm looking for is to tell CUPS "your actual print server is host. Forward all requests there," without requiring CUPS to care about individual printers.
