[QUOTE="gsahli, post: 1608136, member: 182015"] OK, so you're trying to print to a Windows-shared printer. Thanks for that info. (I find HP laserjets to be very reliable, too) I haven't tried connecting to a Windows-shared printer for a LONG time, but I have Windows XP (with a printer) on an old computer (that normally runs linux oper system). Give me a couple of hours to try it, and I'll be back. You'll probably need to know your Dell's IP address, and the printer's queue name on the Dell. Look for that in the meantime. Also, do you use the same username on the Dell as you do on you new Mac? The authentication problem could be that difference, and it may help to have a new identical username on the Dell. [/QUOTE]
