Q: unknown shared pc on finder

Hi everybody,

 

A couple of days ago i have been seen a unknow shared pc on my finder, so i try some things to remove it from there:

 

- 1st: i changed the wireless network password

- 2nd: i restore the airport express and reconfigured it

- 3rd: i put my network in acces control mode and listed all my MAC adress of all my devices there

 

In all cases the unknown pc still there.

 

Somebody may help me to remove it from my finder or know wich device is it

    The post is marked Answered, so fewer people will bother to look inside, as why waste your time if someone has already answered the question.

     

    As Eric Root has mentioned above, it would be best to start a new post, and if you want provide a pointer to this one.

    I've been battling with this for a while and finally found my cause.

    I own a  XPrintServer – Home Edition  devise to make my printer ios "airprint" compatible.

    The moment I unplugged the XPrint device, the mysterious PC disappeared. So as a test whenever you see the shared PC on your side bar try unplugging one by one any device connected to your network until the PC goes away.


    This is what I had showing on mine...

    Message I get after unplugging the Xprinter Server device.

    I did do that but no one seems to bother looking at the new one as well.
