I haven't tried this (I used Win2k/XP), but it looks like MS has an
update for Win98 that will add support for IPP:

Assuming you have cupsd configured to service IPP requests, you should
be able to use something like this as the URL to your printer:
http://your_print_server_name:631/printers/your_printer_name
