Just because Linux "sees" it doesn't necessarily mean it can drive the
printer. But at least your Linux box supports USB, which is nice.
As for auto-mounting the Windows partition, others have already given good
advice. I used to run a dula-boot machine and I had no trouble at all with
sending and receiving files to the Windows partition from Linux.
I made a dedicated folder in Windows for swapping Linux files, so I wouldn't
run the risk of Linux writing just anywhere in the Windows file system, but
this is just a safety procedure. --Mike K.
