i have a black macbook, snow leopard 10.6.6, and a lexmark z25 printer.
i used to have the printer connected directly to my mac via usb. now i have it connected to a windows xp desktop. i have the xp machine set up as my media and print server and want to share the printer to my mac so i can print over the network. i can see the printer when i try to install it over the network, however, i can load the drivers. i have them loaded from whenever it was connected directly to the mac, but when i try to install the network printer i can't find the drivers. i get a drop down of available printers but the z25 isn't listed. when i do a spotlight search all i find is the installer, not the driver.
any input??
