printing on a remote driver on a remote computer?

[KnightOfTheKingOfPop]

hello, I am in a mixup. Normaly when you print on a remote computer that is
attached to your computer you need to install the driver on your own
computer too.
For instance I have a windows xp computer copnnected via usb to my 1220 c
inkjet printer. Normally I would install a win98 driver on the w98 machines
so I
can print via that driver on the winxp machine. But I need a way to send the
print job to a driver that is installed only on the win XP machine!.
Why? Because the version of the driver for the win98 machines have a bug,
but the driver on the win XP machine workes perfectly!

I have heard about PRINTER SERVER.... how do these work? And HP says
something about print via the interent to a remote printer, anyone know
that?

Thanks in advance!

For the ones reading technical replies, I would them (if they are kind
enough) to give
me their feedback with another post (in the same thread of course), so I
will know if my advice helped them or not.

A print server would connect to the Network hub/switch and then all the
computers could print to the (now network) printer with there own drivers.
The computer would no longer print via the USB cable but via the network
cables. This also means your windows XP machine does NOT have to be ON for
the win98 machines to be able to print.
