    Printing to Mac from Windows XP

    Hello,

    Sometime recently, my network printing to my Mac from Windows XP has stopped working. I think it happened after the upgrade to OS X 10.3.9, but I'm not positive (I haven't had to print anything since then). I have made sure Printer Sharing is on in System Preferences, and I do not use the Windows Printer sharing, but I use the CUPS that is included with Mac OS X (I can't seem to get color printing with Windows Printer Sharing, if I can get it to print color, I'll glady use Windows Printer Sharing).

    I can still access Mac's files from Windows.

    Has anyone else had this problem? And, if so, how did you fix it?

    Edit: I can also access the CUPS web interface.

    Hi Rizon. I'm not an expert here, but my Windows to Mac problems were due to a firewall application on my PC - Zone Labs Integrity. Probably won't help you here, but it drove me nuts and might be worth checking to see if you have some kind of firewall settings or app on your PC.
