[QUOTE="grumpy old man, post: 1315319, member: 219855"] OK so I am old and not a computer genius. I changed routers (this only took me 3/4 of an hour on the phone with netgear to accoplish) and now the MAC does not recognize the printer. Widows 7 is looking better all the time. I attempted to just reinstall the printer by plugging in the install disc and it wants an administrators name and password. I don't even begin to remember what the guy used that helped me set this thing up, I had it written down and in the bottom of my in box but it is no longer there. Is there a back door into this thing that I can use to eliminate the administrators log in entirely? Is there a way to reconfigure the printer so it is once again recognized? Do I just turn this mac into a bloop machine, (a bloop machine is when you take it out into the back yard, throw it in the pond and watch it go "bloop"). Any help will be greatly appreciated as I am one phone call away from going back to a PC. Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
