http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=http://support.microsoft.com:80/support/kb/articles/q228/9/04.asp&NoWebContent=1

and

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;278455

explain how to configure printer sharing on a cluster. One of the
requirements is that you create a spooler resource which is dependent on a
disk resource and a name resource.

For more information, I would suggest watching the webcast here:

In short, you need a shared disk.
