Apple's Web site says "A list of shared Windows Printers" will come up
when you're networked to a PC with file and printer sharing enabled.
I've been trying to get this working for a month with my 10.4.2 ibook,
and WinXP (SP2) tower with my Canon Pixma i4000. No such list comes
up.
I've tried a variety of things -- including downloading the Canon
drivers to the Mac -- twice -- and after manually entering domain,
machine and printer names (and selecting one of the drivers comes up
under Canon BJ - none of which correspond to Pixma models) finally can
print MINIATURE versions of pages (unacceptable).
So I called Apple Care and they had me plug the Mac directly to the
printer.
The iBook then immediately knew it was connected to a Canon Pixma i4000
and WILL print this way -- but I STILL can't access the driver settings
to choose paper type, quality, draft, duplex, etc. So I can only print
standard quality/standard letter size only.
Fresh out of ideas.....
