I have a printer connected to a windows pc. Well when i want to install it on any other computer all i do is...

\\mom

and click on the printer and click connect. how can i get it to connect my mac?

also ..

when i type \\mom i have a couple of folders that i share (i use this computer as a server). But currently i have to connect to each folder seperatly, it's sorta annoying, is there a way not to do that?
