I got the Raspberry Pi running as a Google Cloud Print server today, as per murraypaul's suggestion above. I can now print from my Chromebook to my old printers (which aren't Cloud Print ready) without needing to switch on my Windows machine.
I haven't quite figured out how to make the daemon service start automatically if I reboot the Pi - at least, I know I need to create a script for the init.d folder, but my script's not working - but that's my lack of Linux knowledge, I suspect. (If anyone else has got this working I'd love to have a copy of the script!)
However, for now it's a simple matter to open a terminal window into the Pi from the Chromebook and type "cloudprint -a" if the Pi has been rebooted.
