Cygwin is one of the best tools for Unix installation in Windows 7. Just download and run it for installation. Memory usage and thread utilization of Cygwin are comparably low.

There are several ways. One is to have Samba configured on the Unix system so that the Windows system has access to it. Another way is to install the lpr service for windows (most Windows servers now have that service as an installable service).

Can you run unix and window 7 on same computer?

Of course you can as far as you have drivers for OSes which are compatible with your PC. You can do it in two ways. First is to install two separate systems on the same computer and boot the one you need. Second is to use virtual machines ether under Windows or Unix. There is a third way when you can have installed two systems on the same computer and still use virtual machines, for instance, if you have access windows files from Unix.
