Mike-
I've got an iMac sharing a Photo 870 with no problem. I don't know
anything about Windows (thankfully!) but a couple simple (no offense)
questions.
Can you print ok from the iMac?
Have you opened Print Center on the remote CPU and added the printer?
Does the remote have the right driver for the printer installed?
I've read that it sometimes helps to physically connect the remote and
the printer and print to make sure that much works.
Wish you luck!
