remote printing
We have a cable modem hooked up to an Apple Airport
Extreme, with a PC card in a Toshiba laptop. The remote access to the internet works fine but we can't get access to the printer, which is hooked into the USB port of the Airport Extreme. We also have a Mac G4 desktop running OSX. The G4 is able to access the internet and the printer remotely. What do we have to do to get the printer to work with the Toshiba running Windows XP home edition? |

remote printing
Can the computers even see the files and folders on each other?
You might want to take a look through Ron Pacchiano's article about wireless networking at: http://www.practicallynetworked.com/qa/qa20030619.shtml You may need third party software such as PCMACLAN in order to make this work as the AppleTalk protocol is no longer included in client operating systems such as XP Home and Pro - though it is included in Server operating systems.
