Hi all,
I've successfully been able to share the HD on my Windows PC over wireless network (Linksys WRT54G).
I would also like to be able to share my printer. The printer is a Brother HL 1440 (laser). I know it was supported in Linux under CUPS so I think that OS X has drivers for it too. It is connected to the Windows PC via LPT. I think I have turned on priner sharing on the PC.
But when I try to print to it from the Mac, it doesn't work. I get something like "NT_ACCESS DENIED". So I am assuming that this is the Xp PC refusing to allow the Mac access to the printer. Is there something else I need to do to get it to work, or is my printer just not supported?
TIA, as always! :mac:
