Printing From A MacBook Pro (SL 10.6) To Win 7
A few months ago, I used the information in another thread on here to get my MacBook Pro printing to a HP Officejet 7300 series, connected to my Win7 desktop with a USB cable.
That thread has gotten quite long and I don't think many people
are currently paying attention to it, so sorry about the double posting but I did try to continue with that post first.
I was obliged to delete that printer from the Mac at one point this past weekend when I was wrestling with upgrading my home network to Wireless N (that router is on its way back to Linksys and I am trying to get my home network back to where
it was - everything worked fine, using a "G" gateway).
Today when I try to print the job shows up in the queue as being on hold, and if I click that icon to resume it, it just asks me for authentication (not really sure what to put for a password but I've
been using the network password on the Windows 7 machine, to which the router is physically connected - I also tried using the Windows login password, which I need to access the Windows 7 machine on the network).
When I try to add this printer, under SnowLeopard 10.6, if I click on "Advanced" then choose "LPD" from the drop down menu, and type in what needs to go after "lpd://" (I type in exactly what worked for me in the past), do I need to enter anything
into the "Location" box? If I am supposed to enter an IP address for the print server here, can anyone tell me how to find it? (in my gateway firmware, my four computers show up as well as another device or three but none of them are USB devices and I don't
think my printer is in that list at all).
If I instead click on "Windows" at the start of the add printer process, then select my home network/Windows 7 machine/HP printer, that printer will show up in the "Name" box and I would navigate through the list to get the software for this
printer in the bottom box, but, again, do I need to put something in the "Location" box? I don't remember doing this previously but I can't think of anything else I can do here.
When I go to the network summary on the printer itself, for an IP address it
shows all zeros, but I have it set to be shared on the network so I don't think this matters.
Any thoughts, anyone? TIA.
