PC printing to Mac printer on Ethernet: how?

We currently have a group of Macs and one PC on an Ethernet network
connected to a bunch of Sun and DEC workstations.  The Macs are using
Ethertalk for printing and file sharing and Ethernet for MacTCP related
things.  We have an HP LaserJet IIISi currently hooked up to one of
our Macs, which is in turn running Liaison so all the other Macs can
print to it.  We would like to be able to print from the PC to the
HP.  What do we need to do?  I assume we need to run some sort of software
on at least the PC side, if not the Mac side as well.  Is there any
way we can use CAP (which we're currently using so our Unix machines can
print to the HP)?

Thanks in advance for any help given.
