Windows 2000 printing issues!

Hi everyone, I need a little help with setting up my Win 98se & Winme computers to print from my shared printer on my W2k computer on the network.

Is this possible without having a print server and or the windows AD installed?
I know that fat32 computers can't see into NTFS, Is this the reason why they can't connect?

If someone with experience with this problem can help me out, I would very much appreciate it.

I have done everything I know how! I'm all out of Ideas!

Please help! P.S. Why am I able to print to Windows XP from these computers but not in Windows 2000

Thank You All for your help in Advance!
 
That systems with FAT32 cannot see systems with NTFS is a misconception. In networking, you share data, not file systems!

To share a printer from Win2k to Win9x, the users of Win9x must login to Microsoft Networking and have accounts on the Win2k machine. If you haven't already, setup use accounts with identical usernames and passwords on the Win2k machine. After the users log in to the Win9x machines, they should be able to see shared files and printers on the Win2k machine.
