assign an IP address to the printer (though it may already picking it up from the router via DHCP if so configured - best to make it static though)

find "desktop printer utility" in classic app utilities folder and use that to set up a tcp/ip printer connection

I find I can't print in Classic from the iBook via wireless. It will print via wireless in OSX.

The set-up is a bit complicated. The iBook is connected via wireless to the DSL-G604T router.

The DataProducts Typhoon 8 is connected to a LocalTalk/Ethernet Interface which is connected to a NetGear EN104 Hub, which is connected to the DSL-G604T router.

The printer will not work if connected directly to the router.

My question:

Is it impossible to print in Classic from the iBook via Wireless or is it just my strange set up?

I thought I had printed via Wireless from the iBook in OS9 and/or Classic when we had a LinkSys Router which would talk to the LocalTalk interface, but maybe I am mistaken.
