Can you make a printer (HP 4200) that does not have a
NIC, but is connected locally to a XP Pro Machine
available to other members of your network?
 
Provided the other PCs can 'see' the files and folders on the PC with the
printer attached to its local port, yes, sure you can share it.

Go to Printers & Faxes in the Control Panel, right click on the printer in
question, select Properties and click on the Sharing tab. Ensure the shared
name is less than 12 characters/numbers and that there are no spaces in it.
