You need to Print to IP. . . here's a tip from MacOSXHints.com, an awesome site:
1. open print center and click add 2. select ip printing 3. enter the ip address of the printer 4. uncheck \"Use default queue on server\" and set the queuename to PASS 5. printer model \"generic\" 6. if you want to give the printer a more descriptive name, and you're running in 10.2, select the printer in the list in printcenter, and hit command-i. The \"name and location\" menu on that screen lets you change it to anything. As an added benefit, once you've set this up in OS X, classic printing will work to the same printers, although they don't seem to get the descriptive names, just the ip addresses. I'm guessing you could fix that if you booted into Classic. You can usually find the IP address of the printer by using the menu button and navigating to "info" or something like that, and having printing the page. Good luck!
