No, but it finally worked when I added a printer through CUPS by  
pointing Safari to 27.0.0.1:631.  From the XP machine I still  
couldn't browse for it -- I had to enter the exact address.  It  
worked, but there are two remaining issues:

1.  The Mac's IP will change at some point, and then I assume the  
connection in Windows will break.  I installed Bounjour for Windows,  
which is also working.  Will Bonjour print OK regardless of the Mac's  
IP?  I can't test it right now.

2.  The Mac needs to sleep when not in use.  Is there a way to for it  
to wake automatically for print jobs?  There isn't one in the Energy  
Saver control panel.

Thanks!
