Are you sure? From the samba man page:
The smbclient(1) program implements a simple ftp-like
client. This is useful for accessing SMB shares on other
compatible servers (such as WfWg), and can also be used to
allow a unix box to print to a printer attached to any SMB
server (such as a PC running WfWg).
