    Default Connecting To Windows Xp Printer Via Leopard, Please provide me a step by step guide

    Here is my situation:

    I have a HP printer installed on Windows XP but I am primarily using Leopard for my daily work. It irks me having to always send the files I want to print from my Mac to my PC. It is becoming a chore and I want to ease the process.

    My host computer is my Mac, and my PC connects to the internet via my Linksys router.

    The printer is installed and connected on my PC.

    I want to make it a situation whereby when I want to print a document on my Mac, the print job would go to my PC instead and it will end up printing from there. Can anyone lend me a hand on this?

    I am very new to this and not even sure how it works. So guys be patient if I take sometime to understand.

    Thanks in advanced.

    Mac OS shouldn't have any problems printing. Are you sure that HP hasn't yet published any drivers for your printer for Mac OS? At least, my Canon Pixma is supported. So should yours.

    Anyway. Just get one RJ-35 cable (ethernet) and connect the two desktops. Both Windows XP and Mac OS X have easy and advanced networking utilities, so you won't face any problems setting up a home network. You can have the printer shared between the two computers.
