Look Coj, all you have to do is connect the USB printer to the Airport, go 
into Airport Admin, click on the Airport Options button under the General 
tab, click on the USB Printers tab and check to see if your device is 
visible there. If not perhaps reboot the airport and try again. IT SHOULD 
APPEAR!

Once you can see it is there, go into Print Setup Utility and create a new 
printer, you may have to choose Bonjour as the connection method to see 
it. That's it!

Instead of wasting the time of the wonderful and kind list members, who 
responded to this query trying to guess what might be wrong when nothing 
was wrong at all, try testing it first THEN emailing the list if it fails. 
Perhaps an Airport update changed something and where it wasn't working 
for you before, it is now, but be this a lesson to you, OK?!

Peace

Being both laptops we were hoping for the freedom of roaming in the house 
and not being restricted to cables when printing.

Thanks Jens,
