This should in theory work, but you'd need to configure ghostscript (through command line arguments or whatever) to tell it what kind of printer you have so that it can translate postscript into the format that the printer can understand -- assuming that ghostscript supports your printer model.

If you use the native windows version of gsprint, it will print a postscript file on the default windows printer. (Or you can specify the windows name of the printer on the command line.) See also the bash script at the bottom of http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2000-11/msg01442.html
