Printing to Windows only printer from Mac

[zeroatma]

I switched about a year ago, and I still have an HP LaserJet1000, which does not have drivers for OS X. Is there a way to print to it through a networked Windows computer? I've heard rumors about using a dummy printer to do it, but I haven't found out how to get it done.

Your printer is supported by GutenPrint/GIMP-print.

. . . and let us know if you need help installing the drivers.

What if the printer were not supported, like my Lexmark X6170?

The best hope I have to offer is this technique for making your PC a RIP server (postscript translator), so you can send postscript to the PC, and the PC will translate the postscript and drive the printer.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll check that out.
(Might be better to just get rid of the printer, or get a new one for the Mac.)
