Thank you for very direct guidance, Joseph! It's working.
However...on the XP, I got "Spooler SubSystem App has encountered a problem
and needs to close". It's one of those send this report to MS
dialogues. It popped up right after I hit print a test page, but the test
page printed out just fine. I tried another test page, and it printed
fine, too, although that Spooler SubSystem dialogue popped up again. What
does that mean, and should I worry now or wait until things blow up...?
Here's the error signature:
szAppName: spoolsv.exe szAppVer: 5.1.2600.0 szModName: unknown
szModVer: 0.0.0.0 offset: 00000000

I don't know. I was following the instructions from Netgear, doing stuff
in 98 and XP as my first foray into "networking". Given that the print
server is by default a network scenario, I'd have to assume (always risky)
that I did run the setup as a network printer. The two printers are
different. I'm only using one printer, the 990, on the router printer
server plug. The 98 machine is hooked up directly to a 1300 HP printer as
well as the router/printer server. The XP is hooked up only to the
router/printer server.
thx,
