All right we've either got a major cross-communication here or we
re talking about different threads ;-)
That's what I was *trying* to do.
Have: G4 Tower, OS 9.1
TiBook OSX 10.1.5
Turned USB printer sharing on on the tower, went to TiBook, couldn't
find the printer. I can see and mount the shared drive on the tower from
the TiBook, so there's not a problem seeing shared resources, just the
shared USB printer. I tried Go To Server and Print Center and couldn't
find the printer anywhere.
I believe (since I've never gotten it running to see) you need to run
the USB printer sharing control panel to see shared USB printers to use,
since there's a network pane in there.
That said, we found a $25 USB switch which they're going to get which
should solve the problem forthwith.
When in doubt, do it in hardware...
