I have three PC's running on Windows XP that I want to network through my IMac to a printer. Can this be done? If so, what settings do I need to use, because I haven't gotten it to work yet.:cool:

On the iMac, go to System Preferences...->Sharing and turn on both Windows Sharing and Printer Sharing.

That should do the trick - the iMac printer should then be visible to the PCs. Does that help?

Did you check out the macrumors guide to networking with Windows in the Guides section?
