[QUOTE="jw 1, post: 901040, member: 118886"] Hello I have a MacBook running 10.5.8 trying to share a printer with Vista. I can see the Mac from the PC but cannot see the PC from the mac nor access the printer. I have enabled sharing on both and read every article this side of China but nothing works. The PC operates through a Belkin Pre N wireless router and the Printer is a Kodak 5500 AiO. The printer is on the PC. On the Mac: I have tried to use the URL:// nothing tried windows Nothing. tried smb://username:password@workgroup/computer/printer. Nothing. Wish the printer would show up when I select windows from the Print & Fax but still noting. Sure hope someone has an idea I haven't run across. [/QUOTE]
