You are working from a computer in the rm.human.com domain and want to print a document located on a server in the sales.human.com domain to a laser printer located in the support.human.com domain. What server do you need to contact to access these resources?

Since all of your domains are apparently in the same forest with a parent of human.com, then I would say that you'll need to contact whichever server is functioning as the "global catalog server." In cross-domain forests, each global catalog server maintains a full replica of all the objects in its own domain and a partial replica of all the objects in other domains in the same forest.
Reference,
What is the Global Catalog?

If the printer is tied to the sales.human.com domain, you need access to the sales.human.com domain to print to it. At least access to the print queue, otherwise you are out of luck. Since you are in the rm.human.com domain you will only have access to resources in your own domain unless explicitly specified.
If the printer is IP based, it is "open to the world" meaning you can use Windows native print control to print to it. You go to start-control panel- printers and faxes and install a new printer, when it asks for network or local, select network and type in \\ and the ip address of the printer.

None, if it's a jet direct printer just print directly to it... ;-)
