Hi, folks. We've got a home network here with an XP machine and an
Apple Quad PowerPC. We hooked up a D-Link DP-301U print server a
couple weeks ago with our D-Link DL-624 wireless router and were
successful at getting it to print anything the Mac sends to the
Samnsung ML-1430 laserprinter. The XP machine is a different story:
documents sent from Word, Notepad, or IE6 print ok. We can print the
printer test page, too. We *CANNOT* print anything from Outlook 2003,
OE6, or Firefox.

WHAT is the solution to this problem? I disabled 3rd party browser
extensions in IE6, but I can't figure out how or if I should do the
same thing for the three problematic programs.

I'm getting ****ed off enough that I want to take back this somewhat
useless print server. Any suggestions (including take back the
equipment)? Please post here. Thanks a bunch.

I'd probably direct my question to the Outlook newsgroup and the Outlook
Express newsgroup. I think Firefox has their own support forums.
