printing to a windows printer



hi all. 
i have done this in suse, and redhat but am thus far unsuccessful.
I need to print to an HP722C (win printer) that is hooked up to windows 98 on 
an internal lan.  looking at logs 

Oct  1 19:31:11 ganymede pnm2ppa[1192]: No pages printed!
Oct  1 19:31:12 ganymede lpd[1195]: cannot execv 
/var/lib/apsfilter/bin/ppa720-a4-auto-mono-300
Oct  1 19:31:12 ganymede lpd[1194]: lp: job could not be printed 
(cfA012ganymede)
Oct  1 19:31:24 ganymede lpd[1197]: cannot execv

I configured with both printtool, and magicfilter.
i have also installed pn2pm (or whatever the hell it is)
my printcap is as follows
##PRINTTOOL3## SMB ppa 600x600 letter {} {HP DeskJet 720} ppa720b1 {}
lp:\
	:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
	:mx#0:\
	:sh:\
	:if=/var/spool/lpd/lp/filter:\
	:af=/var/spool/lpd/lp/acct:\
	:lp=/dev/null:

any help is appreciated.
