Ok... i've enabled printer and file sharing on the mac running OSX Jaguar, and then using the drivers on my PC i was able to locate the printer on the macintosh. I can select the printer, and it shows the address setup by the drivers but it still wont print. It even pops up a spooling window on my PC showing the job and then it disappears after about 5 seconds. Does anyone know what i'm doing wrong? I've setup dozens of networks using only PC's and never had an issue.

I wrote a few things on the screenshot. I forgot to add that the default setting the driver setup was \\192.168.1.6\sharon********* (edited for name privacy)

Heh... Neither have I. I'm sure I can figure it out quickly tomorrow when i get the time to do so. I'm off to bed for the moment.

File and printer sharing is on. I also have windows compatability on. (on the mac)

Currently I can log into the mac from my PC and browse folders, so its not a connection problem. It's probably just some obvious setting i'm missing.
