hpux printing on win9x, 2k, ME printers

I have been able to configure winnt printers as hpux remote system printers, but am not having any luck with win9x printers. What must be done differently to configure win9x printers on hpux?

WIn9x does not come with lpr/lpd services configured. You need to add these services before Unix printing will work.

would adding File and Printer sharing for Microsoft Networks in the network properties be what I need to add or is there something else? I have already added that and it does not seem to do the trick.

If you're talking about an LPR port, win98, 95 and ME does not have that ability. Period. There is nothing to load....
