Is the USB hub you're using a powered one (have its own power supply brick)? - It needs to be. In Tiger, Bonjour printers show up in the Default Browser Window after you click Add. There is no menu item to select that says Bonjour (There was such a menu choice in Panther/OS X 10.3, but then...

Make sure all computers are in the same Workgroup. On the Mac, use the Directory Access utility to make that change. Click on SMB/CIFS (and unlock lower left) to see the dialog.

You might need to set up the firewall to allow sharing. You might have a second firewall running?

The trick for file sharing is that in the File Sharing Control Panel (OS 9 and maybe OS 8.6), you must enable "allow users to connect using TCP/IP." And when connecting from OS 8 or 9, you should connect to 10.3.9 by entering the "Server IP address" of the 10.3 computer into that space in...

Sorry, no new ideas.

The solution is in the Sharing control Panel on regular OS 8-9 (I don't know about server versions). Check the box that says "allow users to connect using TCP/IP." OS X 10.4 doesn't do ANY file sharing using appletalk. It's part of the phase-out of appletalk.

I don't blame you... But, unfortunately (since my memory isn't great) there are lots of other things that could be wrong. Example - do you have an account on Windows that uses a password? Do you have the workgroups set to be the same? Try this advanced method of Adding - Click Add, then hold...

OK, I now think it's possible that your PC's computer name is the cause (the dash - in the name). Can you simplify that? and restart and try again.

Can you paste the output of that terminal command here for me? You can x out the computer name if you want. Here's what it looks like when sharing on Windows is working: greg% smbclient -NL 192.168.0.15 Domain=[ANCHOR] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager] Sharename...

This result is almost always because you have a firewall active on Windows and you haven't set up the exception to allow printer sharing. Find that in Control Panels > Firewall. (if you have any other firewall than Micro$oft's, you need to set that up, too.)

I think the 2400 is a "series" so you should choose 2400 for the 2410. For troubleshooting, on the Mac, can you please got to the Terminal Utility and type this command: smbclient -NL IP_of_Windows_here (& Return) (space before and after -NL) This command asks what "shares" are available.

As I said, the HP-provided drivers (including ones they provided to Apple to include in OS X) can't print using the network protocols in OS X. The drivers were written to support direct USB only. That's why we have to use third-party drivers for network printing (Windows Printing or IP printing)

You need to install a third-party driver because HP doesn't provide drivers capable of network printing from OS X. http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/MacOSX/hpijs Then, for setup, look at this guide: http://www.ifelix.co.uk/tech/3015.html

http://www.ifelix.co.uk/tech/3015.html You might be able to extract the PPD file from the linux driver. Then you also need to install foomatic and ESP ghostscript from: http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/macosx As far as I know, Samsung doesn't make drivers for network...

I think you need to explain your network to us a little better. Do you mean your office doesn't have a firewall/router and the IP address your mac has is a WAN/internet address given directly from the ISP? And at home you also have no firewall? Do you at least have the firewall on your Mac On...

This frequently happens if you try connecting after turning off more than one computer and then turning them on - so that they get different IP addresses. You'll need to delete any references to the other computer in Keychain and try again. Don't forget that OS X doesn't actually use appletalk...

I think trying a USB-parallel cable will at least tell you if your driver is good, or if it's the USB connection that's bad.

I guess you're using a USB-parallel adapter cable? Many people have had success with HPs using an alternate USB driver, called "usbtb." Get it here: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1537

That's an advertisement.

This tells which generic printer type driver to use: http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Savin-2527 Your model works with postscript (optional) or an HP PCL 5e driver. You already have a generic PCL 5e driver available, in the form of a HP Laserjet 6 Series Gimp-Print...
