Network printer sharing

I have three PC's networked...all with different OS's (XP, Win 2000 & Win 98). I would like to use my Photo 924 printer attached to my XPS 400 to print Photos and documents stored on the other PC's through the network. Set up requires I install the printer driver on the other two PC's. 
 
Does anyone know if the 940 Printer driver is compatable with the Win 200 and Win 98 OC's?
 
Thanks

    OThe 2K machine is more than likely compatible, but you will need to go their website to see if they have 98 drivers.

    Thanks Jimwills,

    It looks like only the 2000 and XP are compatible.

    An older printer would have been okay but the newer ones don't even think about being compatible with anything before Win2K

    Couldn't you move the photos to a shared document on your xp then print from there?

    Thanks OCHO,

     

    That's exactly my plan!

    It will take a few extra steps...is a good work around.

    Thanks for the suggestion.
