Printing on a Win95/WinXP Home Network

I recently resurrected my Win95 computer and set up a network with my
WinXP computer. They connect to each other and to the Internet via a
Linksys router and a cable modem. I can connect to the Internet via
each machine and I can view files on each machine from the other. I
would also like to be able to print from the Win95 machine to the Canon
iP5200 printer connected to the WinXP machine. However Canon does not
have a Win95 driver for this printer. Does this mean there is no way I
can ever print to the Canon iP5200?

Probably. Unless the canon can emulate another printer. For example,
if the Canon supports PCL, you may be able to use an HP Printer driver
that also uses PCL. But I looked up the specs on canon's site and it
didn't list what printing languages it supports. You might also look
for an upgrade CD on e-bay and upgrade to 98 (the printer does
apparently support 9.
