I'm setting up an Airport Extreme Basestation with Printer attached to the USB Print Server on the Basetation to work with a Powermac (15"), and a Dell Latitude.
The laptops work fine - but the reception in the house I'm setting it up is HORRIBLE (I think they have 2.4 Ghz phones). We're going to try an external antenna for the basestation.
Anyway, the thing I'm having a problem with is that they have an HP Photosmart printer... which I knew didn't work with OSX before. Altho now the HP website says it will work with 10.2.3, so I'll be installing that soon.
The Airport Admin Utility does recognize and verifies the printer's information.
But, does that mean it will work?
My confusion is because I found this today, and the printer is not listed here:
http://www.apple.com/airport/printcompatibility.html
Any ideas?
And how do I find the printer from the Mac?
And what about printing to it from the Dell (or another printer)? The Dell is running Windows 2000 Pro...
Thanks in advanced for any help...
