Maybe it's time to update the Mac's OS? Marc, in my experiences 10.4.x worked great, but 10.3.x always gave me issues. Maybe it’s time to update the Mac’s OS?

The PC runs Vista Home Premium w/ all the updates that have come out. The Mac (iBook) runs OS 10.3.9 and has all its shots (so to speak). The two machines are connected via wireless network to cable internet. So that's broadband --> 802.11x router --> PC \--> MAC I'm pulling my hair out trying to get this to work and I'm just about at my wits end...to the point that I'll deal with having two separate printers in my home office just to not deal with it. How can I get the printer to talk to both PC's? I'd love it if someone could answer this in straightforward terms...I'm a windows guy, so I don't really know Mac at all...Thanks in advance! ~Marc Ok, so I installed Bonjour on my machine, and set up the sharing in the Mac and I STILL can’t see the printer on the windows machine.

The post here was the solution - I downloaded Bonjour from the Apple website, installed & ran it. I was astonished at how quickly Bojjour found the printer! All I then had to do is select the printer and hay presto, wireless printing from the laptop!! Thank you so much for the tip - it's simple, fast and it works!! Regds, Anil.

But I no longer have a PC to try to see if it works. Nick, I think installing Bonjour on the PC should do it. But I no longer have a PC to try to see if it works.

I have a Intel iMac running on a wireless connection (through the same router as the Windows machine). The printer is set up on the Windows machine. What do I need to do to get the Mac to see the printer? Is it just a matter of installing Bonjour for Windows on the PC? Please help me if you can.
