I would install cups on my intel mac, then set up my hp as an Apple Color Laserwriter 12/600?

Could someone explain this a little more? I am not quite sure how to do this. (although I already installed cups1.2.1)

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I set this up once for my Mom. However, I don't remember the exact steps. Set up your mac networking to add in the SMB protocol. I don't remember if that's all you have to do but you should then be able to 'see' the printer attached to the xp.
