VPN? Tunnel? #@#@? Please Help

[GlenA]

Hey Guys, i've got this problem and i just cant solve it on my own... Basically i have 2 Dlink DSL 504 routers at different locations but in the same country. On one end i'm running Linux RedHat server and on the other just a basic microsoft network. I have a Dlink d300 print server and what i need to do is to be able to print from linux server to the remote print server. I was wondering wheather i should set-up a vpn or some sort of a tunnel. I have tried port forwarding and DMZ but that just wouldn't work, no packets were getting to the print server whatsoever.
I have never worked with VPN's before therefore i just dont know what to do anymore. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
