I am trying to set up my mac to print through the network. This has worked with both linux and windows, so I do not see why it shouldn't work on the mac. I go into the printer settings, add a printer through windows (Navigate through my network, then my PC signing in as the main administrative user on the windows pc, also tried as a guest and as one of the limited users) and I get as far as the printer being added and it saying ready. Then I go to print, and I get an error on the printer queue that says the following before saying idle:
ERRDOS - ERRbadaccess (Invalid open mode.) opening remote spool Google
If I retry I get another error just like it.
So What am I doing wrong here? I chose the right printer driver from the list (EPSON CX5000 Series) What am I doing wrong?
The printer is currently working, both through the host PC running windows xp pro SP3, my remote PC running windows xp home SP3, and the same remote PC running ubuntu 9.04
