print-server

I'm working in office which uses Windows server for printing. Because our printer supports only Windows driver. But here are Mac OS X also which requires network printing...

I'm sure there is no driver of the printer for Mac. So I figured out an idea to do this.

On the Mac, a virtual printer driver generates and sends PDF file to print server.
Print server, prints PDF files with it's local printer.

Is there a solution can do this? (free or commercial)
