Printing to an HP Printer from a Power Mac 6500, an iMac G5, a SE/30 and an LC475

[GerrySch]

To All, the title says most of it. I have an HP Color Laserjet Pro, MFP M477fdw that is on my local wired network and prints fine for my modern PCs, a Dell XPS 9710 running win 11, a 2013 MBP (last allowed OS by Apple), an M1 MBP (running Tahoe) and my old HP Pavilion dv7 (this runs win 10, but will it still work on win 11? Originally came with win 7). So, how do I set up network printing from my classic iMac G5, PowerMac 6500 and my LC475? Is it even possible over the network? The LC475 is running under OS 7.6.1, the PowerMac is running under OS 9.2.2 and the G5 is running OS X 10.4 Tiger.

Is this possible?

Thank you for your time,
Gerry

The G5 running Tiger should (in theory) be able to print out of the box via Bonjour. Under the hood it uses CUPS. Classic MacOS can print via LPR using the LaserWriter 8 driver (clunky, but works) or by setting up a Netatalk server on a Pi or VM to serve as a real AppleTalk PAP print spooler (harder to do, but the end result works better).
