Sorry I must be blind as a bat because I cant find anything that has to do with printing in the way I need it.

find the word "Windows" on that page ----
I found other printing information as if the printer was already installed but nothing on how to install a printer that is being hosted by a windows computer. I also cant seem to find a downloadable version of the CentOS manual.

If you want the pages on your own computer though, you can do something like this...
open a terminal
mkdir manuals cd manuals wget http://www.centos.org/docs/4/
which will download the entire set of html pages on to your computer in the 'manuals' directory which you can then use firefox -
'File' menu => 'Open file...'
then navigate to your manuals directory and choose 'index.html' and open it.
If you want PDF form, you could get that from 'upstream' provider...

Ok... I am new to CentOS as you can guess. So I have no clue what Samba
is.
I looked for LPD on my XP box and couldn't find any articles on how to install an LPD port on my pc. The weblink someone posted as well was very difficult to follow so can someone give me a more easier approach to installing a printer? Let me give a few details that will help.
My computer is Windows XP and the printer is an HP 4200. I want the CentOS to print to that printer. Its already shared out. So now how do I make the connection and install the drivers?
CentOS Documentation is here...
I believe that you will find the information on setting up a printer (a smb/samba printer) in the 'system administration guide'
