It should be as easy as just adding a network printer. Ok. crap first sentence.

What you will proberbally need to do is (on the Mac) go into

<the hard drive> --> Applications ---> Utilities ---> Printer Setup Utility ==> choose the printer ==> click on Show Info ==> note the printers location

From there on the Windows machine, just add the printer as you would a normal network printer.

Hope this has helped

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
