How do i connect an epson 7900 printer to an apple extreme

I just purchased an Epson 7900 HDR printer that is in my den. I have it connected with a USB connection on the Airport Extreme to the network connection on the back of the printer.I am trying to print wirelessly from my Imac that is located in another room.

I can't seem to get it to recognize or "see the Epson printer"

I would appreciate any insight to solve the issue.

Imac 27" 2.93ghz, 16gig Ram, 2TB Drive, Mac OS X (10.6.6)

Can you briefly describe the steps that you took to install the printer at the AirPort Extreme and then try to print?

What happens after each step?

Bob,

I reinstalled the print drivers along with the Config utility & that seems to have solved the problem. I was able to add the printer & print off a test page.

Thanks Todd
