Hey all, I've attempted to add a printer that's on a windows mating, and it comes up with an authentication dialog, and I've tried putting in the username and password required to log into the windows machine that the printer is connected to, and no go. Is this the username and password that it is wanting? Or are there printers out there that actually can accept usernames and passwords to connect to them. WOuldn't want to have to get a whole new printer just to use it on the mac. Dan Eickmeier, Brantford, ONtario Canada.
