MacBook Pro using Windows XP Home Edition Version 2002 Service Pack 2 via Boot Camp cannot print when connected thru AirPort. No problems printing with USB direct connect to the computer. Same computer: no problems printing in OS X 10.4.10 either direct connect or connected thru AirPort. Printer is an Epson CX4800 Ink Jet. Appreciate help. Thank you.

While open in Windows, found "bonjour" listed as one of the programs. One of the options available was the "Bonjour Printer Wizard" (an Apple program supplied with Boot Camp). Opened it and followed simple instructions. It added another printer, slightly different title than the original. When selected, the new addition prints via the AirPort wireless connection. Problem resolved.
