Question Installing Printers to Classic Environment via OSX

I'm working on a computer running OSX, and it prints to a printer LJ8150 in its OSX applications (like appleworks).
However, I have Office 2000 that runs in the classic environemnt (OS9) and I want to install that printer in effort to print out of the classic environment.
I'm more of a PC-guy, but there's got to be an easy way to do this.
Mac Gurus, do your thing.

Download the OS9 drivers (while in OS9) from the printer maker's website (if they even exist) and install them. Otherwise youre kind of out of luck unless you have another computer than has the ability to use the drivers. If so, then you could always do a networked printer set up.

Thanks for reminding me about this issue, Star_Topology, this really shouldn't be hard. I guess I'll have to look at this Monday, if I am at work.
