Possible to print from OSX to Windows on Virtual PC?

[Spica]

Help, I'm trying to print my lecture notes from school.

I have a laser printer (Minolta Page Pro 1200W) that does not support a mac OS X driver. The only way I can print currently to is to run virtual PC and print using windows.

However, I do not have powerpoint on windows buut I have the mac version. Is there anyway I can print through virtual pc using my mac powerpoint?

You could try converting the powerpoint file to a pdf and then print from Adobe Acrobat Reader in VPC. Or you could convert to a series of images or web pages and print from a web browser in VPC.

If you know which version of PCL your printer uses, you can use the driver for a different printer that uses the same version of PCL. Look into GIMP-print.
