I have a PC Windows XP with a D-Link Wireless router (no USB) hard-wired. The printer (Canon i255) is connected to the PC.

My Mac (10.4) is connected to the internet wirelessly via PC's router.

Can any sifu's show me step-by-step tutorial on how to print from my Mac wirelessly?

I've directly connected the printer to both PC and Mac and it works.

Help?

Its pretty much point and click. Just make sure that the printer has been shared out on your Windows machine.

Then on ya mac: System Preferences -> Print & Fax

Select to add a new printer there, and the Printer Browser window will come up. Click the More Printers button. On the top most select box, there will be an option for Windows Printing. Just follow the UI from there onwards to browse your windows network to select your other machine and the shared printer.

Interesting thing here is, OS X uses the very same printing system that Linux has been using all this time, just that the OS X configuration interface is a lot nicer.

Hi fyire,

Thanks for the tutorial. I managed to find and add the desired printer. But I'm at a dead end; tried printing a Word file and it says the print job is done successfully, but the printer is not responding at all! Any ideas?

I have the same problem, the print que on the XP says printing error and nothing comes out.

try and use this software called network magic. it is free for the first 30days after that got to bayar already.
