Hi,
        I have a Cyclone Rip on a mixed network. What model do you have? The
Macs will print to itjust as they are. You only need to install the
provided drivers. For my NT 4.0sp3 workstation I had to add Microsoft
TCP/IP Printing. On NT you go to the control panels and click on
add/remove services then select Microsoft TCP/IP Printing. It will
probably be similar for Win95. I don't have a Win box at home but if you
need more info you can email me at the office & I can look up the exact
names. I'm swamped in the A.M. but could help after lunch

HTH
