Should not be a problem. Windows 2000 P3 800 or whatever is on the market and cheap 256 MB RAM $40 HD - IDE ATA/100 (SCSI requires SCSI card and ribbon. IDE would be fine.)
The biggest thing that will increase performance on a print server would be the location of the print spool directory and/or the hard drive. With 75 users, we have 70 here, you should not have a problem. If it does get slow, like everybody printing the entire content of the internet, then add large second hard drive and change the print spool directory to the new hard drive.
