Printer sharing with Windows XP/Tiger... HELP!!!!

I am having the exact same problem with my Epson CX5400... Has anyone got this to work yet?

I'm going to try what is suggested above.

I am brand new to Mac, so I'm a little wary of getting in to these kinds of changes... Can I screw it up?

Excellent! This finally got my Canon PIXMA iP2000 to work properly from Windows!

(up until this point all I got was grey instead of black)

Doing everything that the stocksy.co.uk link says messed up my system but in the end I managed to get everything happy. I found that I needed to ignore his stuff in terminal and just to the add a new raw printer in the CUPS webpage bit.

Once the RAW queue was added, I just used bonjour with the proper Canon driver (which will now do all of the cocky stuff that it likes to do)

Getting my printer to work on both of my Macs and one PC has been a major headache for over a year now. Originally, I had my printer installed on my PC, and after some trials and tribulations, I was able to print from both the PC and my Macs (running Panther). After upgrading to Tiger I lost all printer functionality from the Macs - back to square one. Unfortunately, no matter what I did I couldn't get the Macs to recognize the printer on the PC again, so I thought I'd try it the other way around and install the printer on one of the Macs. That just lead to more headaches - I could print from either Mac, but not the PC.

Finally, today, the day after Halloween I can shout "IT"S ALIVE!"

Here's what I did:

First of all, I'm using an Epson Stylus C-60 printer which is connected via USB to my G4. My network is ethernet with a D-Link Router and connects a G5, a G4 and an old Dell 733 P3 piece of junk running Windows XP (I only keep it around to run a 3D animation program and a labeling program).

Anyhow, I deleted all printers from ALL machines and started from scratch. Since the G4 was going to host the printer I started there and added a new printer - Epson C60 with a USB connection specified. I printed a test page from the G4 to confirm it worked...no problem. Then I made sure that "Printer Sharing" was enabled in Print and Fax preferences, and "Printer Sharing" and Windows Sharing" were checked in System Preferences/Sharing. Next I went to the G5 and found the printer on the G4 and added it. Printed a test page from the G5...it worked too. I then went to the PC, used Bonjour for Windows and specified the address for the printer on the G4, then set it as my default printer. I printed a test page and almost fell over when IT ACTUALLY WORKED!

I never had to specify a Generic Post Script driver as mentioned in previous posts (maybe Bonjour or Epson took care of that for me???), and I never followed the instructions at http://www.stocksy.co.uk/information/pantherprint/pantherprintxp.php (also mentioned in a previous post) primarily because I was running Tiger and not Panther.

I hope this all can help somebody - Good luck!

I'm having a problem sharing a Printer (HP Officejet 6110) which is attached via USB to my PC. I see the printer on my Mac Mini, however, when I try to print to it, it get nothing but garbage on the page.

Richard, please read all the posts in the forum regarding your issue -- then install the hpijs and ESP ghostscript driver set:
