print from xp guest running under virtualbox on ubuntu host

Good stuff:

Only issue is doesn't explain how to find url of ubuntu host from within guest system (host isn't running webserver.  would that make a diff?  idk)

To find use ifconfig, address under vmnet1 (vmnet1 is virtualbox, vmnet8 is  vmware.  I think that's standard)
