[G4] Windows XP PC on Apple Network

[Jim Pacyga]

Not sure about the appletalk printer part, but just allow Samba 
connections (Windows Sharing under the Sharing Pref panel) and you 
should be able to use Cmd-K in the finder to open a server.  Just type 
in smb://<server-name> and it should prompt you to connect to a share 
that is available on that machine.

As for the printer - try also allowing printer sharing from the Sharing 
Pref panel and with luck it will allow the printers on the mac to be 
seen by both other macs and the win boxes.
