my boss has two computers, one a pc and one a mac.
he is looking to buy a printer, is it possible for both OS to print to the same printer? (how can this be accomplished?) or will he need two printers, special software/hardware etc.

i;m not too familiar with mac's so thanx for any help ya can offer. =)

If the PC, Mac, and printer are USB-capable, you could probably connect them with a USB hub. Or, if the printer can handle it, connect the parallel interface to the PC and the USB interface to the Mac.
