Ok, I have the weirdest problem when trying to share a printer across the network. I did just upgrade my iMac (20") to Snow Leopard and have run Software Update until no more suggestions come up. My iMac has the 2.16 GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo processor and 3 GB of RAM.
My printer is connected via USB to my iMac.
Here's the deal, I have a network and everything else is working fine. When I attempt to share my printer I enable printer sharing as directed, check the box by the printer I want to share (there is only one) and then, 5-10 seconds later the printer un-selects itself so it's no longer shared on the network.
I also go to Open Print Preferences and check the box next to Share this printer on the network and the same thing happens. The box clears all by itself in 5-10 seconds.
I've re-downloaded the HP print drivers (HP F4440 printer), reset the printing system and nothing helps.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
