leopard doesn't print in airport Express

Hi all.

I have a mac book pro with MacOSX 10.5.1, leopard and my problem il regarding a printing issue.
this is the situation:

-I have a R360 Epson printer attached to my air port express but it prints only when it's connected directly to the USB in the Mac.

-Leopard sees the printer trough the Airport correctly. through the airport setup program I can configure and see the printer with zero problems.

-the airport actually joins an existing network in my house, that is a wireless router NETGEAR. I set it up through the wizard and it worked perfectly; I didn't received any error messages, and I should add that I can use the remote speakers with I tunes perfectly.

-I made two printer queques - one when the printer is via USB, one via wireless link. the first works perfectly the second not:
.. I receive a "comunication error" when I try to print from every program (aperture, preview, safari, camino... all of them) wirelessly!
.. I get a 1008 error message if I try to use the epson utility to manage prints (<- this actually happened both via usb an WIFI)


ok this is all I guess.
I didn't put any IP adress number or any specification because I work with computer assistance from quite a long time and everything else is working perfectly, so I assume that that part is configured correctly; but ask me everything you want to know and I'll tell you in no time. I'd like to fix this problem because is driving me crazy.
-oh yes! one thing. With both tiger and panther it was working as lightining

ovviously I checked also the Espon site for updates on drivers, known issues etc etc but no results.

please tell me something... even if it's "sorry is a known bug - no solutino right now"
thanks in advance

Tommi
