6100/66 Dos card - printing to a HP LJ 5 over a Mac network

We have a HP LJ5 connected to a standard mac network. Is there anyway
of allowing the PC side of my machine print to it without having to
get bucketloads of Novel or TCP stuff? At the moment all I get is a
line of gobbledegook along the top of the page (so somethings getting
there).

I've got a copy of Win95 I could install on it. That has TCP protocols
built in so I could possibly use that if needed but I don't think 8MB
of Ram will be enough.
Are there any pitfalls to installing Win95 I should be aware of?

I have Win 95 installed on my DOS card with 8 meg of RAM and have had no
problems so fare.

Just set the windows printer to LaserWriter on LPT1: and it will print to
whatever Mac printer is selected in the Chooser.
