Hello All,
I have a printer connected to my iMac G5 2GHz.
I network with a PC and both computers are side by side.
I've been unplugging the USB cable back and forth between both computers but realize that I should be able to share the printer between them.
The printer will be connected to the Mac and I have set up printer sharing on both computers and have not yet been able to print anything on the PC.
I have added a printer to the PC and the printer shows up in the network folder on the PC, but if I try to print a doc the printer window appears and it is collecting the printer status (the printer name indicates that the printer is on the Mac), then the printer status window suddenly quits.
I've tried copying the doc to the Drop Box folder within the Public folder that appears when I double-click on the icon representing the Mac but the same problem persists.
The networking side of things works fine but I just need help with the printer sharing part. Printer sharing is enabled on both the PC & the iMac.
Thanks in advance :biohazard
