Allowing Win2K Pro user to print to a MAC printer

[dufresnem]

I have a G4 running MAC OS 9.1 and TCP/IP which also has an HP DeskJet 960 connected via USB.

I want to share out the MAC printer so one of my Win2K Pro users can print to the colour printer attached to the G4.

Any documentation on how to set this up?

You have two choices as I see it, PC MacLAN, or more likely, DAVE.
PC MacLAN is great when you have one PC in a sea of Macs and need the PC to play nice. DAVE is for when you have one Mac in a sea of PCs and need the Mac to play nice.

Thanks. I recently found an article on how to configure cups on MAC OS X so I can achieve the same result.

I'm curious if I can install cups on OS 9.x ?

MacOS 9 is not unix based, like OSX is.
CUPS is Common UNIX Printing System and will be unix only.
