I have the Lexmark X3350, an All-in-One hooked up via USB to my Win XP Home PC. I would love for my Win 98 box to be able to print to it over the network. I had an older Lexmark and I had no problem with this. Lexmark's tech support said there was no Cross OS driver compatability. Basically, they said I couldn't have the computers share it unless they were all the same OS.

Any ideas to work around this? I tried to create a generic printer connected to the USB port that I could share, but I can't get another printer driver to talk to the USB port.
