Networking Printer

[CrystaLizeD]

Okay, i've read several threads about this on this fedoraforum, and yet, i can't seem to print to my printer.
Here is how my network is setup:
I got a DSI-624 D-Link router.
I got a WinXP Pro that has my printer : HP DeskJet 670C (yeah i know its old) connected to it. I set my Printer to be shared on the network.
Now i got another computer running FC4 that is connected to the router aswell.
Internet is working fine, but printing doesnt work. Can anybody help me here?

P.S. I am windows-literate not linux-literate ;)

I assume you can print from windows?
You want to be able to print from FC4?
Install Samba on the fc4 box. I have my printer connected to my fc4 box and use it for printing from my son's winxp machine. It should work the other way as well.

yes i can print from windows fine.
i want to be able to print from FC4.
But hmm... as i dont think i will print from my FC4 often, i prefer having my computer connected to windows rather than my FC4 as i don't want to always open my FC4 whenever i want to print.
