The main point of networking these machines was for back-up and recovery situations. Ideally I'd like to run backups of all machines from the main machine. Is this achievable?

Yes, how do you want to backup? To CD-R's, hdds, tape drives, etc?

The only files made available on the other machines currently, are in the MyDocuments folder, there didn't seem to be any other option given.

Yes, right click on the folder (not file) and for win 9x, i'm pretty sure its a tab under properties, if not its its own link on the menu. It will give you the option to share any folder.

Please could someone explain the printer sharing to me?

I've never done it myself, but I believe you merely right click the printer in My Computer\Printers (not sure about that, been a while since using 9x). Then you have to install the drivers on the remote computer that will use the printer. In some cases this will have to involve physically plugging it into the computer.
