Bug Solaris 8 setting up a remote printer queue

I have a printer installed over ADSL to a router at a remote location. A Windows printer queue has been setup and working and I can ping the IP address from the Solaris server.

I now want to add a printer queue for this printer under Solaris, but I am unsure how to setup a remote printer queue. Can anyone help?

Thanks
