Rod - Thanks. I had done all these steps as part of the setting up
the iMac for shared printing. It is at this point that I go over to
the WinXP machine and try to set up the new printer. When I browse
for the printer I find the iMac network connection but there's no
printer associated with it. I don't know how to help it find that
printer. The name I call the printer on the MAC (i560) is not
recognized in the WinXP printer set up windows. So what do I do
next????
I'll look into Bonjour.
Thanks,
John
