buy a printer switcher and couple both computers up to the one printer.
try the website below look for printer switchers to give you an idea what to look for locally.. they are not to expensive ... you will need two printer cables and the switcher

Hi
I know u use CUPS to share your printer with linux, but im not sure on how to do that, but an alternative would be that u get a small print server device, plug into your printer and connect it to your network, that way all your PCs can print without needing your linux PC to be on.
