Print from a Mac to a PC over a network using SAMBA
Authored by: ms_t_rie on Dec 12, '05 06:39:55PM

Just as a pure guess, I would see if the Windows firewall is blocking it. (or the Mac one if you started it). You could turn off the Windows firewall, try printing, and if it works, then you'll know that's the problem. then you just have to allow the port used for printing through the firewall and reenable it. (better yet would be to keep the built-in one disabled and download one of the many free 3rd party firewalls that are vastly superior) If it still doesn't work, then the firewall wasn't the problem and you can turn it back on if you wish.
