I'm assuming your LaserJet is connected to the G3 via a localTalk (serial) connection. If so: Unless you sell your G3, you can network the G3 and the eMac, and run a freeware program available from apple called "LocalTalk Bridge" on the G3. Set AppleTalk on the eMac to run via EtherNet. You should be able to see your printer in the Chooser (under OS 9) or Print Center in OS X.
