Does turning the firewall completely off count as "holes in xp's firewall?"
Sorry, bad XP joke. If its working one way then it should work the other with your current setup
I'm really stumped on this part (printing from Mac to PC). I guess I'm not the only one having difficulty. I am seeing a lot of posts from others who are having problems with this, too. But, unfortunately, there aren't any easy solutions from what I've found.
Seems each time they upgrade X they fix one bug and make another, atleast from the forums I'm reading within the links I've posted, it seems there's a work around for most problems. They took a easy OS and turned it into X. :(
On the linux box here I would simply add a printer, tell it to search the network for it and if it failed I'd then narrow the search with the target machines ip address, I guess this is more cups or gimp than samba, samba shares the printer on the mac and file shares.
Do a double check again, make sure the printer is set for sharing, if the mac side is anything like nix here you would then go to the printer control panel,
choose the "locate on other machines button" and press search.
