If they are appletalk printers you will need to install appletalk on the windows boxes. (PCMACLAN)

Samba is part of the server installation. I have set up print queues in the print server section but I can only get one printer to show. The ques show up on the mac so they are being published but only one of the printer show up on the PC. I had PC MacLan installed on our XP Professional machine but it would crash when I would try to copy across the network. That stopped once I uninstalled PC MacLan. Is there another way to get these printers to show. OSX Server says it should be possible to make it work without any additional software on the PCs.
