I've tried this on a G4 here running OSX 10.2 and on a clients pb
running 10.3. I set up the sarge servers (powerpc and i386) using
samba/cups, see:
http://excess.org/docs/linux_windows_printing.html
(I don't run nfs or netatalk but network all flavours on samba)
and setup cups on the OSX clients by following:

Worked for me :)
