    Since I don't know what your network consists of or which Apple printer
    you have I can only tell you what we do here. For an AppleTalk only
    printer we setup a print queue on our NT Server which has AppleTalk for
    printing. It can see the printer advertising itself out there and
    capture that port. Then it's just a matter of setting up the sharing
    and anyone on the network can print to it, Mac or PC. If it has IP then
    we'll sometimes use an LPR port to it.

    If you only have Windows 98 and it's an AppleTalk only printer then
    you're going to need something like CopsTalk, MacLan, etc. Something
    that puts AppleTalk protocol on your PC.
