[QUOTE="Primitive, post: 1013392, member: 146687"] I have a Canon Pixma printer hooked up to an XP PC. My Vista laptop sees it and can access/print to it. My iMac found the printer when I added a network printer. I installed the Pixma drivers on the Mac. When I print, it sends it to the printer and the dialogue box shows that it is printing. But the printer hooked up to the PC never does anything. From the Mac Finder, it shows the XP PC and the Laptop in the Shared column, but when I click on one of them it either says Connection Failed or just stays on the Connecting... message. Is there something obvious I'm not doing? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
