Need help getting an iBook to print on a shared printer
Our main computer is a PC running XP. We have a wireless router hooked up to our cable modem. My wife's iBook works great for surfing. However, we've never been able to print off of the shared printer. The iBook just never seems to be able to see the printer even though it's set up for network printing. What are we missing?

Is the printer shared from the router or the PC? You will need software driver on ibook to see the printer if on the router. What kind of printer is it? If shared from the PC you may need to run some emulation software to see it.

It's shared from the PC. The printer is an Epson CX5200.

Download Mac driver & install it.
The rest depends on what version of Mac OS you are running.
