The easy way to do this is to get a print server that supports IP (JetDirect type) and connect your printer to that, other then that...You may have to isntall IIS 5.0as it has a internet printer option somewhere in the default install, I'm not sure where because I remove the option due to security risks (I dont want random people finding my printer and printing fun stuff on them)
