 You shouldn't be able to print from either the Win98SE box or the
 W2K box, if the printer is connected directly to the XPP box and the
 XPP box is off.

 If what you say is true, then my suspicion is that your printer is
 connected to a port (print server) in your router.  If that is the
 case, the printer setup on any individual computer in the network
 is different, than if the printer is directly connected to one of
 the network computers.
