You need to provide a lot more information. What type of printer is  
it? What is the printer hooked up to and what OS is that device  
running? What version of OS X is your PMac running? It sounds like  
you're connecting the PMac to the Linksys wirelessly, yes? Is the  
print server also connected wirelessly?

Have you checked any sites like macwindows.com (http:// 
www.macwindows.com/), Mac OS X Hints, or Apple's support site?
