10.3: Print from Windows XP to a shared Mac printer
This is quite simple to do - in Jaguar and Panther. Just use CUPS, no samba needed (I think).
10.3: Print from Windows XP to a shared Mac printer
Brilliant hint to use internet printing instead of browsing. Many thanks! Windoze XP can now find my printer on my Mac - but when it comes to ask for a driver for it I cannot find it to supply it!
10.3: Print from Windows XP to a shared Mac printer
This is exactly the hint I needed. I set up an extra RAW printer in CUPS and it worked perfectly from Windows XP. Thanks a lot!

Hi, I tried the cups method to get my windows xp machines to print to the HP deskjet 930C attached to my emac on X.3.3.

to enable row printing in CUPS You should make some changes in files mime.convs and mime.types :
10.3: Print from Windows XP to a shared Mac printer
I tried your recommendation but without success. I am using Panther but I did install GIMP-PRINT with CUPS. Not sure I needed to do that. I have an Epson Stylus Photo 750 printer. Anyway, I followed your directions on the MAC and then on the PC. The PC is running XP. I used the the raw setup on the MAC and the EPSON 750 driver on the PC. Everything seemed to load OK. However when I print a document from the PC it never happens. Printing from the MAC is fine. Any suggestions. Thanks, Lou

I had a little bit of trouble with this, but managed to work out the few kinks.

Hi,
10.3: Print from Windows XP to a shared Mac printer
When attempting to add a printer via the web interface it asked me for a username and password. Well, after a while spend rummaging through docs I found that this was the root username and passy for your comp. Of course the root account is disabled by default so you have to use NetInfo Manager to enable the root account and set a password before you can make this work.

Sorry if I am too stupid to understand but when I follow this I am asked by CUPS for a logon and password - which one do I need?
10.3: Print from Windows XP to a shared Mac printer
I was having problems getting the CUPS interface to work because of the name and password drop-down too.

Just a note, if you don't want to have to use static IP's I found that I could use my computer name.
10.3: Print from Windows XP to a shared Mac printer
Well, I tried to setup a printer Canon i950 connected to a TiBook400 with OS 10.3.4 as described also from "chris_on_hints on Sat, Mar 13 '04 at 10:00AM". Installing the printer with CUPS on the Mac, works fine. Printersharing on the Mac is on!!! On the PC then with Windows XP I find the printer, doing the setup and...her ends everything. Trying to print a testpage from XP gives me an error, will say no printing.
10.3: Print from Windows XP to a shared Mac printer
Wow - I finally got it working. It took quite a while b/c of the bug in 10.3 with the shadow passwords and CUPS. However once I got the password changed to basic I was able to log into CUPS and add the network printer.

This just isn't working for me. I type the name of my printer's URI into Windows (http://simon:631/printers/hp950c) in the XP printer wizard and it says it cannot connect.

Just to update:

One more update - I got printing working from the laptop too.
10.3: Print from Windows XP to a shared Mac printer
After reading this thread and trying many of the suggestions, not one of which worked, I've set up the perfect system. A long USB extension cable runs to the USB hub where my Epson Inkjet and hp LaserJet are plugged into my G4. When I have to print from XP to one of the G4 printers, I pull its USB cable out of the hub and plug it into the USB extension cable. Works every time, and was cheap! So much for the wonders of CUPS.
