MacBook - Newbie: Need help on printing to XP shared printer

Bear with me please. I read tons of articles on this but somehow as a
newbie to MAC, I am missing something. 10.5.2

Currently, I set the MACBOOK up so my friends daughter can print
directly if we plug in the HP Deskjet 5490 printer directly via USB to
the MACBook. No problem.

When we first got the MACBOOK I tried setting up the MACBOOK
wirelessly to recognize the workgroup where the printer was attached
via USB to the Windows XP PC. However it printed out garbage since I
did not know there was a difference between XP printing and MAC
(Gutenberg/gimp printing/drivers).

I now know there is a difference after reading a little.

But in reading various instructions I Googled, I no longer can find
how to connect the MAC to the Windows workgroup. Note we do have a
printer set up currently as USB-HP Deskjet on the Macbook (not sure I
need to delete it yet).

I went to System Preferences on MACBOOK and clicked on printers, more
printers. In the drop down box was CANON, APPLETALK, IP HP printing
and Firewire. There was no WINDOWS selection as I saw in other online
web instructions.

So not sure how to proceed to
1. Connect to workgroup (click on what exactly), step by step please!!
2. Add correct printer



Thanks so much in advance.
Sincerely
Patty
