Folks shouldn't have any trouble printing to the shared printer, "Jasper" 
(HP laser jet 4 plus) from anywhere on the suite network.  if you're 
running Mac OS X 10.3 you shouldn't have to install anything to get it to 
work.  here's how to set it up on a Mac:

open /Applications/Utilities/Printer Setup Utility
click Add
select Windows Printing
select WORKGROUP from the Network Neighborhood
select ANARCHISTE (this is the computer it's hooked up to)
click Choose
enter the username: imcguest
leave the password blank
click Ok
select Jasper
select Printer Model ESP
select HP LaserJet Series CUPS v1.1
click Add

you will now have the printer "Jasper" set up to print from your Mac.

Note, for some reason the new HP CUPS (common unix printing system) driver 
may be listed under the "ESP" section instead of "HP" (at least on the mac 
I used).
