networking PC into Mac / Printing

Comment:

We have a small mac network with networked printers. We just added a PC which has no problem getting out to the internet through our network, but if I try to add a printer it does not seem to see them. Any ideas?

Did you make the printer shareable?

I think you need something to allow the PC into the Mac file system and services. Something like Dave or Linux Samba.
