USB is still unfailiar territory to me. ------------ If it is a Chooser extension, I am guessing that you are using OS9 or previous.
Does the printer show up in the Chooser? Do you have it selected? Do you have the Apple USB support files loaded? I have an Epson 777 USB printer and it is seen on my network as a shared printer as long as the 777 drivers are present on each machine that I wish to print from, even those that have no USB capability. I do know that USB 2 is not supported by an OS prior to 10.?.?.(Jaguar?). If the printer is USB specific, you may be in for a challenge. Ken -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
