Printer question on dedicated Linux HD

[allen76693]

I have mint 14 and would like to connect a HP Photosmart C 4200 series. It was intended for 2000, XP, or Vista.
Please point me to a process resource or tell me how to connect. Non essential info I do have XP on Virtualbox
but seldom use it. Thanks
