I cannot IP print to a windows Print server with an HP Laser Jet 1012 attached. My hardware includes an iMac G4 running tiger on a linksys wireless network. The server, a Simple Share office NAS storage device with hard-drive and integrated print server is attached to the router. There's no problem accessing the files in the storage device with the Mac;
Windows XP machines on the network print and access files with no problem.
Using the Mac print browser - when choosing IP printing and entering the IP adress, the mac cannot see the actual printer ( which is supported with osx's generic postscript driver).
When choosing "Other printers" option and using windows network printing in the browser- i can see the HP printer however when attempting to print I get timeout or busy errors.
I've browsed several of the forums on this website and others and this seems to be a very common problem. Threads also indicate no-one offering solutions.
I've spent lots of time on this problem, does anybody have solutions to this problem?
thanks
Pilar
